I really like your wor...I will tell you the truth.<br /><br />I really like your work and honestly I think the work that is more illustrative, or put within a design context, is stronger. <br /><br />I know the artist/designer dichotomy is slippery but it is a choice most creatives must make. I say follow your heart; it is tough making a living either way. Don't let fear or money choose for you.<br /><br />Now more about your style:<br />I really like your use of color in most of your pieces. I also like the line work specifically on the monochromatic pieces (one that stands out is the postcard or even the piece in this post). There is a certain exoticness or freedom, intentional or not, in your forms that is refreshing.<br /><br />On the critical side, and this is just a suggestion and meant to build you up:<br />I would suggest practicing drawing from life, using photo references or, even better, taking multiple semesters of life drawing. If you can draw people well you can draw anything. I am not saying this to change your style. I think your simplification of figures works but I think it could benefit from a greater understanding real world forms and dimensions. I think your work could be more powerful if reality was distorted rather than just drawing from pure perception, if that makes sense.<br /><br />This is just my opinion take it or leave it. I truelly hope this helps you in your journey. Best of luck in your artistic exploration.Josh (musarter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15455252303108963162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30226959.post-25982939653407543982010-02-23T21:00:42.225+05:302010-02-23T21:00:42.225+05:30I like this piece.
