Will Langridge Works

Just an Aussie artist trying to figure it all out. Some jewellery, some inking, maybe even a little writing.

The result of several late nights of drawing are in. I've been working on and wrapping up these drawings for our midsemester assesment. These two are part of a triptych examining and adapting the Book of Job from The Holy Bible's wisdom literature. Ink with dip pen and brush, charcoal, chalk pastel and oil trace monotype on primed paper mounted on board. 2019, Will Langridge #qca #queenslandcollegeofart #drawing #drawingatqca #drawingstudio #biblicaldrawings #christianartist #triptych #christianartist #contemporarydrawing #bookofjob #christianart https://www.instagram.com/p/B1QHie7lHiv/?igshid=mvmyuut19v9a

Wee baby dinosaurs, off adventuring.

Just some practise copper dinos of mine 😁

If you didn't already know, drawing isn't the only thing I'm doing at art school. My studio major is in Jewellery and Small Object making, which this semester means lost wax casting.

An in-progress shot from last semester's drawing assessment. The works I created for the assessment folios were a series of non standard portraits, with each of the three folios presenting a series of portraits. Each explored the idea of scarring as storytelling signs and signifiers.  #tracemonotypedrawing #paintstick #drawingatqca #fineartdrawing #art #drawingatqca #drawingscars #scumblingchalk #willlangridgeworks @alexagonal https://www.instagram.com/p/BzKPjuwFdig/?igshid=1fykm45uz5u02

The dread, dark, curling forearm and hand of the artist who has been forced to include themselves within the work. It's actually really disconcerting, when you start thinking about positioning the audience, how the artist drawing in naturally positioned, bringing in that almost exterior view.⠀ ⠀ Figure drawing study, Ink dip pen and brush, 2019.⠀ ⠀ #inkdrawing #ink #figuredrawing #lifedrawing #drawingclass #gestural #artist #artistoninstagram #langridge https://www.instagram.com/p/ByriHuglKrP/?igshid=1i25i52vz191k

I managed to find this sitting in the shed, in an old tin filled with oil. Just another little one of Dad's treasures cleaned up and brought back to life. #boysbrigade #boysbrigadeaustralia #brass #polishedtoashine #willlangridge #trevlangridge @langkeys @jennlangridge (at Queensland College of Art, Griffith University) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxjIeGQljcj/?igshid=96m5u7bitkhm
