A Glimpse Behind The Scenes

Kevin McHugh Art Posted on 23rd October 2013 by Kevin McHugh7th July 2016

As you probably know, I like to show how some of my artwork comes together: how a piece evolves and grows and the process I use to physically create it. Well now I’ve been given another platform to do it. Luckily for you, it’s confined to 500 words!

For some reason I cannot fathom, I’ve been asked to write a monthly column for local newspaper, The Impartial Reporter. The series will give me an opportunity to explain a little about myself, my work and the strange goings on in my slanted little world.
I’ll be talking about my art, music and whatever else I happen to be doing at the time.

There’s plenty to begin with as Cadaver Club is about to launch debut album ‘A Fate Worse Than Life’ and we prepare for our first UK tour. In later months I’ll be waffling on about some painting or other I’m working on or maybe the next powerhose mural project or perhaps just about nothing in particular…maybe a list of people I don’t like! Mmm, maybe not.

‘Behind The Scenes’ begins in tomorrow’s paper and I wrote it surrounded by boxes as I was in the middle of moving house and getting several paintings finished before their deadlines.
I know, I know, I’m a trooper!

Short and sweet this time, eh? Bet you wish it was always like this,
Kev

Head Scratching, Story Telling, Shadowy Figures and Blistering Guitar Work

Kevin McHugh Art Posted on 3rd March 2013 by Kevin McHugh7th July 2016

How’s it going? Did you miss me?
Aw, me too, well let me tell you what I’ve been at…

Been a busy few weeks for me. The main thing I’ve been working on has been preparation for an art project based around a fairy tale set in the Appalation mountains which involves storytelling through shadow puppetry, music, narration and visual arts. There are four artists, including myself at the core of the project but we’ll also be involving school children, musicians and anyone else we can rope in.

I’ve the outline of the story written but it needs a nip and a tuck here and there. Once it’s finalised I’ll set about designing and creating the shadow puppets and backgrounds with school groups. I’ll also be “painting” scenes from the story with my trusty powerhose as my next series of barn murals which is where I find dirty walls and wash away everything that isn’t the picture I have in my head, leaving, well you’ve guessed it – the picture I have in my head.
