words are but the vague shadows

"words are but the vague shadows of the volumes we mean" said Theodore Dreiser. .......

i like the 1950's textile look these shadows are taking.


this shadow needs to breath, so i am spacing it out.

lapse of time

lapse of time.

this print stopped half way - too much ink in my design- the next layer would be brown outlines and specks. i like the intensity of the orange because i was drawing this shadow in the heatwave of summer with the afternoon sun baring down through the Trophy Room studio windows, i was trying to hide in the partial shade given by the paper I had against the window. feel the heat.

addicted to your light.

 

Layers of moments print session

A continuation from the drawing layers of moments, playing around with seperating the layers and printing them at the Rizzeria.


I like the creases in the news print, there's something in them:
imperfection,
lines of movement,
plain old textural goodness.


Layers of moments print session from 10:10:00 to 10:10:04.

Need to get tone into the equation, this print session was fast snuck in after work and before play on a Saturday. Need flat colour not pencil texture, sharpie btr. The contrast on scraffitto layer needs to be bumped up not quite right anyway (10:10:01). Re-training my linear style. Today the purple ink drum was unhappy note the green is not a good option!

Thoughts on movement:
two projectors/ projections to recreate the flickering of the shadows - i can see interactivity with people choosing the layers layering or taking the layers off a projector or two projectors like a conversation in improv music.
