a scan of a recent watercolor that I’ve since continued adding to

The first picture I’ve drawn with a rapidograph pen, which was great until I somehow bent the hair-thin wire, wish you didn’t have to replace the entire plastic-segmented nib  * ︿*

A collaboration with Andrew Maurer

Etching on sintra pvc board, a mostly fortunate misprint with some areas filled in by hand. Wavy scan from the thin paper, and some digital correction

Zoom in (I'm working on a website of my own, and there will be a magnifying viewer for some pictures- I found a few options so far, if you have any to recommend, message me ✉ )

Red Mountains

click the end of this sentence for a mandatory view of a mega-close scan

ink, markers, with water, varnish, various debris (cloth scraps, hair, etc.), scraping

the scan is better than looking at it in person ! even though you can't tell that just the red part of the landscape is shiny, or the optical illusion of waves in her shirt, the insane level of detail makes the scan win out, I think.

 Some of the original paintings/drawings/etchings I have recently put up for sale.

Most are pre-framed, and there are more photos in their listings.

If you are seeing this, you probably follow this art tumblr- thank you so much.  I made a coupon code that goes until march, "ITWAS2013" (without quotes) for 10% off any other than the small etchings.

(If you were to reblog this post, I would really appreciate it- it's unlikely for people to come across this blog through the tags I use, and these images individually were mostly only seen by those who already know my work)
