Years ago I played a bit with japanese sumi ink.
I can’t remember if I mentioned or not, my decision to attend art school in Philadelphia to study fine art.
The school there was just too good, and I had to say no to studying abroad at the schools either Paris or London 😦
I guess that’s what you get when you know exactly what you want from an art school.
So I tried to do a sort of organic exciting collage of the same kitchen view using ripped and cut paper.
Double post! Woohoo!
A third little paper cutting. Just for fun.
At some point, when I find more paper, I want to do some layering.
I need an x-acto knife, you know, so I can stop using a box cutter.
The small details get a little raggedy, I think.
I gave paper cutting a try for the first time today.
It was actually pretty zen, definitely looking forward to doing some with different paper and a little more time to plan and cut and experiment.
Was thinking about how much I like hyenas, so I cut this little guy out, although it looks more indistinguishably doggy.
So instead of doing something productive now that I’m going to be stuck in Ohio all winter, I have been hibernating in my house drawing little comics and wallowing in nerd-dom.
My desk has already started down the path of messy clutter. What you can’t see is the giant pile of pastel boxes and paints to the right.
I should have done something over the weekend.
Happy Halloween!!!!
Pumpkins!
I’m starting to feel like it’s this time of the year.
Snow time.
