printmaking in progress

Here we continue eh, you know.
You dig. Is inked. You print. And at last we behold.
This time I used yellow rice paper as a support, and a mixture of black and red inks.
The technique is nice, what do you think? He began to like it a lot.
The only negative ... apart from the dirt ... well, you know ... you try it in ink with a cat that wanders on the desk.
esempiucci Here are two that are the delight of her mother.


Lullaby moon


a mask

(note on a mask: it is not Christ. I repeat, is not Christ . Although it seems to all, and there was one who has not said, is only an African mask.)

...

Some other print tests, using a red-black ink mixture and yellow rice paper. The first one is a blackbird singing to sleeping moon (a beloved subject of mine). The second is NOT Christ, as It Might Look Like, But An African mask.
All in all I'm loving this technique!

The Sketchbook Project

Now I understand: I'm crazy. It was not enough work that I have already. The final year of illustration, many projects still to be closed, they (help) still to begin. In addition to real work, of course, that for some reason I always forget. NOT ENOUGH. And so, since I'm always afraid to stand with folded hands, I enrolled in The Sketchbook Project 2011 ! This is an interesting project in which they can participate in choral artists from all over the world, each sending her lovely moleskine chock full of doodles on a theme. All of these wagon sketchbook are then collected and exhibited in various parts of the USA, as a kind of tour. It seems fantastic, no?

I hope you will be willing to participate in mass. Also if you are acting nasty enough. If you're little people do not like this series.

Happy almost weekend!

I Enrolled in The Sketchbook Project 2011 .

I came across a link for it and thought this Would be an amazing way for me to join an interesting project while pulling myself to draw more and more. Here b elow an extract from the project website:

"Thousands of sketchbooks will be exhibited at galleries and museums As They Make Their way on tour across the country. Thousands of sketchbooks will be exhibited at galleries and museums as they make their way on tour across the country.
After the tour, all sketchbooks will enter into the permanent collection of The Brooklyn Art Library, where they will be barcoded and available for the public to view.
Anyone - from anywhere in the world - can be a part of the project. To participate and have us send you a sketchbook that will go on tour, start by choosing a theme to the right."

ciak you print!



Eccoci. L'ora dello scavo è giunta.
Ossia l'adigraf.
Per cui, having to dig again, I said to myself: why not groped serious? Type printing multiple arrays?
Well, actually I do not know if you do as I did, I went to arm looking through the blogs I follow, but you know what? I really like it is coming!
Below the first test print on paper battle, just to see if he was. For the clouds I used an orange (a tad bit more yellow to red), while for the tree in a tone of brown (more red than black). Like I like it! Way to go.



...

Here we are. It's time to carve.
So I Said to myself: why do not I try something serious, this time? Like a multi-block print?
Well, actually I'm not so sure about how to do that, but you know what? I like the way the print looks!
And that's just a test on poor paper!! Great. It's encouraging.
I've used an orange (yellow plus red) to make the clouds and a tone of brown (black and red) to make the tree.
Lovely, isn't it?
My very first attempt in multi-block printmaking.
I'll try to do better next time.

Incredible what is checked out today!
The character on!
This, guys, this is my first ever digital illustration, done in 2002 for the month of October of one calendar but poor remained in the limbo of calendars. Forte
eh? What
document! What
witness!

Oh well, "digital illustration" seems excessive. But we are talking about Ten years ago, a PC every two days on strike, a programmucolo crank (and who had never seen photoshop?!?) and a graphics tablet that I had (yes, I drew with the mouse). So please can you pretend that are amazing, so I drink it myself.

Now, I can tell you that because surely haunt my blogghino do not know: this is Alkemilla, the famous character on. And I say "famous" because in my real world who knows me can not help but know, too.
you, my alter-ego of Criticón when I was studying for my degree, which came out between the lines of what I wrote me back and order (and I would end once and for disturbing doodles with chemical formulas).
It does even today, very often, but it has evolved, not criticism. Now cheering.

in July next year will celebrate ten years. Great event.
And to think that when he was born like this:

Incredible what is checked out today!
My "character on"!
character on means-something like "small character", "cute personage."
Thay's my very first digital illustration I've done in October 2002 to Represent in a still-to-be calendar.
What a document!
What a witness!
I'm so glad to introduce you Alkemilla, my critical alter-ego who sprang out from exercise books when I was studying for my degree, and criticized me 'cause I was losing time (so I did stop disturbing my doodles with chemical formulas).
Today she still does, as well, but in an advanced way. Not criticism at all. Now just cheering.
Next year, in July, she'll turn 10. Great event.

Oh well, "digital illustration" seems to be a bit exaggerated, I see. But we are talking about ten years ago, and a computer always on strike, and a ridicolous image editor (who had never seen photoshop?!?), and a graphic tablet I still had not (what else but the mouse to use?).
So please PLEASE pretend you find it stunning, I'll Certainly believe.

"A work in progress, germ and organic, that develops over time in his life exhibition allowing the public to take care of them and the artists to continue to grow and keep them alive. In this way the various parties will become responsible for the show and his own position in life.
The project, in fact, does not end until the goal of exposure but is developed through a process involving a series of meetings with the artists involved to create a whole new way of sharing the project. The vulnerability is expressed not only in works so well in this mode curatorial primarily based on mutual recognition and collaboration among artists that necessarily lead to unexpected experiences.
