The collection of prints for final review
Let me know what you think these are the prints Im using in my final review I love four of them and feel ok about the other two. I really would love some feed back so feel free to let me know what you think, which ones you like and which ones your all set with.
These are the two images I’m not so crazy about. the second print I really like how much it looks like a drawing but the image itself doesn’t feel complete.
The last print is my favorite from the semester it happened quite naturally and developed the same way my drawings would.

a recent drawing
Today I worked on a print all day and it came out the way I wanted it too but I used part of one of the first pulls in this drawing. I like this drawing which is why Im sad it is going to be used in a exchange, its always the way. This first image is a close up of the print I cut up, it was in a early state of the print with a shine colle from a woodblock I did in the past.
Bellow is the Drawing, a combination of drawing, paint and print.

My two new favorites…
I love these but as usual they are collaborations and soon enough they will not look like this so as usual I need to share them with the world before they no longer exsist! Let me know what you think. The layering and color are really exciting for me also, the combination of mark making is quite interesting.

The renewed woodblock
This is not finished but today I pulled a woodblock for the first time in almost a year and well I was actually happy with it! Sadly enough I did not pull many first states so I will be doing a lot of varied images with this block as a key component.

Integrating the figure…
I’m going to keep updating this post with works I do about the figure or that I believe are based off the figure. Today’s drawing was one of the first to truly be driven by the central figural element. Now there was never a goal at rendering a perfect carbon copy of a human just the hints of the form head, shoulder, knee, ect. I like how the figure remains the point of focus but only after you come to it through the fruit like forms that surround her.

Watercolor studies… lets put a figure back in there!
The first image was a continuation of the previous post, just messing with composition and webbing . The other images are purely studies, I have been curious to integrate a figure back into my images since a lot of my charcoal images have a sense of skin and body references. I decided to draw the body how I enjoy to draw the body which typically means elongated and not quite proportioned.
This next image of the hands is a study to reassure myself that I can still draw a properly rendered hand.

Newbies I’ve been trying to intergrate color… hmmm.
Both of these images were created on a whim, there was no base drawing or reference only a bit of randomly placed tape to create negative space. The top one is my favorite but both we working with the same forms and are nice to see as a pair. Let me know what you think of the colors, I always get stuck in this pallete.
