Artist's Comments

this is the preliminary drawing for part of my final evaluation in gr. 12 Regional Art. it's worth 15 damn percent of our overall mark. what a challenge...

i'm in the process of cutting the linoleum block, and it will soon be into the printing stages, which i will upload later.

anyone familiar with my gallery will recognize this picture as [link] one of my old IDs... just a little more.. mannacing looking.

questions about linoleum block printing? (as i undstand i haven't really given much insight)
ask away.

Beatiful job. The rounded shapes in her face pop out nicely.

holyshit I love this. It looks like it would be from a comic book. Have you ever drawn a comic or considered it? Kuz you should. I could see it now. wow. real good job. I wish I had it in my hands so I could hang it up.

dude, like dude.... like oh man, this is worth 15% of out mark and i am going to fail!
Seriously though, this is amazing. It definately has that comic book vibe to it, that really moody kinda shadow thing happening.

Brilliant, brillian, brilliant!!!
I'm dabbling into block printing at the moment and I was wondering how to make the image look dynamic and alive, my one seems quite stilted and dead. I NEVER expected to see something this inspirational. I think you've given me quite an insight into what an amazing medium it can be. Seriously, congratulations.

well, i'm glad to hear that. it's nice to hear that your work "inspires" people. it makes posting worth it.

a word of advice, it always helps to start with a dynamic referance image because it's harder to make something interesting if it starts as a static image. and use lost of line weight variations and directions (i think the curved lines helped a lot in mine). hope it helps :)
