What’s the Idea?
Lots of people have heard of Jim as an actor, but did you know he’s also a painter? As a lover of Jim’s art, I would like to share it.
What’s the story
I’m trying to get hold of Jim Carrey.
I’ve got a message for him.
(Jim, if you read this, you can email me at: leigh@stufftodoathome.com)
So myself and the team at Stuff To Do are creating lots of Jim Carrey related content, in the hope of getting the attention of the great man himself.
Because I’m a huge fan of his art, I thought this was a great opportunity to talk about it, and what makes it so awesome.
I also have to be honest and say, I’m not hugely familiar with Jim’s films.
Obviously I know who he is, and I love some of his later work (‘Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind‘, for example).
But I think of him as more of a painter than an actor.
His art, quite frankly, blows me away.
(And I say that as a painter myself).
So here are 3 reasons why Jim Carrey’s Art is awesome.
People should do this because…?
You should appreciate Jim’s art for 3 main things:
- Vision
- Colour
- Fearlessness
I explain more in the video above!
How do you do it?
If you want to see more of Jim’s art then the best place to start is his own website:
http://www.jimcarreyonline.com/info/arts.html</a>
Or if you’re lucky enough to live in the US, he exhibits regularly, so (when you can!) why not make a trip to see his wonderfully energetic paintings for yourself (I would love to!)
Stuff you may need
- A love of colour
- An open and enquiring mind
