Description So this is... intaglio and digital.

I scanned the print in at like, BIG. 600 ppi or something nuts.
It's more organic than you'd probably expect but hey I like it.

Oh sure, it's jammed with the requisite symbolism and all that classical reference you read about it art school. Bah whatever.
I worked on [this image] from far away and have not seen it up close, but I bet it is fucking awesome.

So thanks for checking it out.
Prints will be like $8,000 each, or maybe a lot less. Or free. Ah, I don't know. Or care really. I already have it.


So here are some cool words to think about as you look at it. Be sure to Google them so you can see how deep the work is an what my inspiration was and all that. I think I am being equal parts sarcastic and ironic. Or totally sincere.
There are no answers eh?

And when the sand was gone and the time arrived
In the naked dawn only a few survived
And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge
Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge

This is a perfect example of why I would LOVE to see your works up close. I look at this and feel like I'm really missing out...

It's beautiful. So much so that it actually made me stop, and REALLY pay attention.

Thank you.

It's rather sparse in places, some more back ground texture might be in order, it feels incomplete as is. The coloring is nice and I like the media blend going on with the 3d renders and drawings all intermingled.

This is pretty amazing. I love the details, and get kind of lost in them. I like that some of the lines are lighter and look almost erased. I also like the illegible handwriting on the lower right. Very mysterious.

Glad to hear that, the intaglio aspect worries me sometimes. I know what I can do in digital but to switch gears like that.. it is a different way of working. The pacing and level of precision ( at least in my case) is trickier.

Thanks for checking it out!

HorseRotovator In reply to Senecal [2008-05-04 02:25:36 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, sometimes a transition can be fabulous, other times it can be an alternate route of sending your work to the butcher.

Fortunately (and quite obviously), the quality wasn't hindered at all! I really am captivated by the shape and angle of her face. The whole piece is very dreamlike, but something about her makes her appear to be conscious.

Like those times when you're aware you're dreaming.

Fantastic!

I feel as though this is a bit unfinished...though I'm use to your work being a lot more complex. I really dig the upper right hand portion of the image. I would love to see some creative cropping on that portion, that would be a most excellent companion piece.

Thanks man, totally right about that corner. I thought about cutting it but said, bah, maybe it will lead to something more. Good eyes as always!

The stuff you are doing in 'Dynasty' and 'Bounce' is right on, too I think!

Hey thanks. I think there is something to just letting go. And, too I think I've underestimated for too long, the power inherent to a combination of mediums working as one.

Always appreciate you taking time to visit, + much respect for your work!
