    Matt Gordon Babysitter On Acid Blotter Paper Archival Print by Matt Gordon

    Babysitter On Acid Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Matt Gordon pop culture LSD artwork. "The Babysitter on Acid was started almost 8 years ago and I only work on it when I feel like a passenger on the bike, or I have witnessed some weird people in the woods while mountain biking. It was the first painting started after my last solo show where the character on the front of the bike "Stinkeyes" finally got paid with magic money and a dollar bill falls out of his envelope on the frantic way to the bank and subsequently ends up growing into a money tree...still writing the storyline. Anyways. "Stinkeyes" is a partier and is friends with the equally fried babysitter and that's how he got her to give him a lift...This sounds strange now that I'm writing it out, my whole last show was started after I took mushrooms and went to Disney World on New Year's Eve and Jiminy Cricket's narration of the fireworks rewired my mind and artistic path. I'm not receiving that anymore, but it was a long-lasting trip for me..." - Matt Gordon

Blotter Paper Fine Art Characteristics and Application

Blotter paper fine art is a niche but fascinating segment of the art world that intersects with the counterculture movements and has gained traction in pop art, street art, and graffiti artwork. Traditionally known for its use in laboratories to absorb excess liquids, blotter paper has been repurposed by artists for its unique absorbent qualities, lending itself to a range of artistic applications. This medium has been particularly embraced by those in the psychedelic art movement, known for its vivid, intricate patterns and association with the psychedelic music scene. The primary characteristic of blotter paper that appeals to artists is its absorbency, which allows for the application of liquid inks and dyes to spread without bleeding through to the other side. This results in sharp, vibrant artwork with a unique texture that cannot be easily replicated on different paper types. Artists have utilized blotter paper to create works that exhibit a dream-like quality, often with bright, swirling colors and complex geometries reminiscent of the psychedelic experience. In the hands of a skilled artist, blotter paper becomes the canvas for deeply symbolic and often thought-provoking imagery.

Collectibility & Exhibition of Blotter Paper in the Psychedelic Art Movement

The psychedelic art movement, with its roots in the 1960s and a resurgence in various forms over the decades, has found blotter paper to be a fitting medium for its expression. This movement is characterized by its visual manifestations of the mind's altered states and has been closely associated with the psychedelic rock genre and the broader counterculture. Blotter art often features iconic motifs from the era, including peace signs, mandalas, shamanic imagery, and representations of pop culture and political commentary. Blotter paper fine art has become collectible, not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its cultural significance and historical value. Collectors and enthusiasts seek out these works for their connection to a specific era and the distinctive techniques used in their creation. Exhibitions dedicated to blotter art have showcased the diverse range of styles and subjects tackled by artists using this medium, highlighting its place within the broader tapestry of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

Evolution of Blotter Paper Art

Originally, blotter paper was practical and designed for laboratory use. However, its absorption properties made it an ideal vehicle for psychedelic compounds, which inadvertently led to its use as an artistic medium. Artists began to embellish blotter paper with intricate designs that disguised the paper's intended use and celebrated the visual style of the psychedelic era. Over time, these designs became more elaborate and collected for their artistry, independent of their association with psychedelics. Blotter art is characterized by its intricate and detailed designs, often requiring a high level of skill and precision from the artist. The artwork can range from hand-drawn illustrations to complex geometric patterns and fractal designs. The diversity in style is vast, with some artists adhering to traditional psychedelic motifs. In contrast, others explore modern aesthetics, incorporating elements from street art, pop culture icons, and contemporary graphic design.

Cultural Significance of Blotter Art

Culturally, blotter art holds a mirror to the periods it traverses. The early works symbolized the freedom and rebellion of the 1960s, often containing hidden meanings and provocative messages. As new generations of artists have adopted the art form, it continues to reflect the values and sentiments of contemporary society, all while maintaining a nod to its origins. This blend of past and present makes blotter art a unique collector's item, offering insight into the evolving landscape of art and culture. The artistic diversity within blotter art is also a testament to the inclusivity of the medium. Artists from various backgrounds and artistic disciplines have embraced blotter paper as a canvas, contributing to a rich tapestry of styles and perspectives. This inclusivity expands the reach of blotter art and encourages a continuous dialogue between artists, collectors, and enthusiasts. Blotter paper fine art is a unique artifact within pop and street art. Its journey from a subcultural secret to a celebrated art form underscores the adaptive nature of artistic expression and the enduring quest for creativity in visual culture. As it continues to captivate and challenge audiences, blotter art remains a vibrant and poignant reflection of our world's cultural currents.
