What are Richscribbles?
Richscribble watercolors from johann franki's blue sketchbook follow the label 'Make big what you like'. All original sheets from the sketchbook were denied the contrasting "wash", the final overpainting that introduces the shadows to create depth and highlight the light areas, in order to avoid a restrictive color and design definition. This process is only carried out with editors on the PC during digital processing and thus preserves freedom of interpretation, which only receives its final definition in a separate print file.
Process
A high-resolution scan is made of the rich scribble and the digital result is interpreted and processed.
Now the most beautiful part of the work begins, because coherent, harmonious and exciting details are sought, which have a strong character as cut-outs, details are refined and finally scaled to the size of the DIN A1 format.
For the overhead projector performance Fastenzeit in St. Martin’s Church in Euskirchen, I worked out a (basic) ground, a form for how I would apply the paint to the projector. This sketch contains the idea of proceeding in a systemic way of painting, which I then did in the performances with Markus Goecke, cantor of St. Martin. It is a sensual process of applying the paint evenly crosswise, cross by cross from left to right, row by row. Here is the original idea. The brush picks up the ochre on its side and then dips into the ultramarine. The gradient creates millions of intermediate tones delicately framed by the ochre, which imposes a slightly grayish neutrality on the ultramarine through its complementary direction to the blue.
The number of exposures is reduced, the black point is increased, contrast and saturation are added to turn the pale motion sketch into a booming rich scribble, from which I have selected 4 areas.
