Odds and Ends

I thought I might post a couple of things I have lying around on the net. Here they are...

Some good stuff here. I like the simplicity in the etching of the woman and how the essence of the character is still achieved. The painting reminded me a little of something by Georgia O'Keefe; it had kind of a New Mexico feel to it, where I believe much of her work was inspired. Her paintings are so vibrant, and great to copy to get some practice mixing colors. I did a copy of one of here pieces using acryllic a while back. It was challenging. Using skulls for a still life works well in so many different mediums and I like what you've done here. The two drawings below that were quite cool and the surrealism of the last one really stood out - dramatic and unique. Do you have any photography to hang on these digital walls?

nice to have another Aussie onboard,

TDF- funny that I just happened along the day after you posted, its been a while since I dropped in here...

The last two images are etchings from copper plates. I also love the results etching gives and I think it really suits the way I draw. Unfortunately its a rather complex process starting before you even begin the drawing. If it wasn't so impractical I'd do it more often.

Thanks for the response

The last two are really blowing my mind.

Thanks.
I've got a fair few prints of those. Been thinking of selling them for a while but haven't gotten around to it.

Laying around??? These are terrific. Have you entered any art competitions with these? I really am impressed with number one and the last one.
Such talent!

Cheers,
