Description
I think I need to make a small correction...Not about Freddy Kruger's portret (
), but the technique - it is actually a 'dry point' and not an 'etching'. Since this category was not quoted, I choose the one, which is the closest to it...Anyway, that's it

awsome drypoint! dry point is cool although I hate the part when you have to remove all the excess ink :/ did your hand hurt in all the procces of scraping your glass/acrylics plate?

Why not? You can make amazing details with the 'needle'...Althought the printing is ....

we had to make a choice between that and etching, painting or pencil drawing
and i took pencil drawing
but the needle is indeed better for detail than any pen could do

Yes, I think so...But aren't you alowed to try other techniques too during the course? Some of my colleagues, who where studying painting or sculpture for instance,have often visited us and have made some good printings as well by themselves

Oh, I see...pity. And how is your pencil art class going? Are you happy you have chosen that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes i learned alot
(but it was done a few months ago
now i'm doing graphical design and i like that alot
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I believe, the previous course helps a lot, no? It's a pity, but most of the graphical designers I know actually do not havy any 'art related' education...It's not neccessary of course, but I think it's better to have different points of view and in that case some sort of sense for composition, colour etc.

we get edjucated in art if we want to be designers
we get classes in modern art, art history, composition, drawing technieks, even literature as base for designing.
which is good if you ask me

lol, it's just that the wrinkles look like scar tissue on the face in the thumbnail. I think that's why.

Yes, you're absolutely right. Well, I don't mind at all

From the thumbnail, I honestly thought you had drawn a picture of Freddy Kruger.
