It might have just been my frustrations at work and not wanting to be there. <BR/>I've been playing with the checker background trying to create my own world and not just having a regular blue sky. ALso to develop pattern and just doing what I feel like. I use to do this a lot when younger and was really influenced by my friend Svenja DeVries in doing this. I forgot it as I became a very bitter person in life but came back to it when realizing I was a really unhappy person. Getting back to the things like I liked as a kid and not trying to impress Art Directors or other people in what they like has opened I guess that 'kid' mentality of what I want to do. Being Gary Panter's student also helped dramatically in this way of working doesn't hurt either. <BR/><BR/>If you saw the original drawing size you'd laugh. It was about the size of a thumb. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the critique. With this project I feel like I'm already knowing you better. Next time you in town let's all grab a beer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1714471865381023932.post-46097359736004210062007-08-29T17:49:00.000-05:002007-08-29T17:49:00.000-05:00i like the "eye" thing going on - i don't know if ...i like the "eye" thing going on - i don't know if any meaning within it was intentional, but the sun seeing things with many eyes, and the priest seeing things with only one could easily carry a message. <BR/><BR/>and i like the checker background thing you've been throwing around recently. with the contrast in colors between that and the subjects, plus the different direction of the lines, adds movement - the priest character truly looks like he's floating over those rocks.<BR/><BR/>nice.james flameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186585225985389581noreply@blogger.com
