I love the intense line quality and your brilliant use of which to indicate different planes. Its bold and striking and youve given him a character Im sure the actual person would love to see.

Im referring to the hercules piece.
He did this in one setting, started off with the eye and just made a continuous line (per side). Just thought Id share

thank you for your comment on Joseph, enjoyed reading it and seeing your perspective.
I went and looked at Robert Rivers' 'Hercules" piece, it's extremely interesting.....it makes his piece more intersting to know that he did each side in one continuous line. thank you for telling me his artwork.

Girl you need to come to Jamaica..... you would not only beable to draw the
real Rasta, but to enjoy the culture too!
I love what you've done with your line making and it's expression.
I really like your work and like your kinship to nature.
