Under the Sea, prints from nature


My original idea was to create a seascape using elements of the sea, this obviously changed when I realized the difficulty of matching those elements to the shapes that I looking for. It was disaster... My final goal was to create simple movement throughout the work by using a mix of lines and textures. I believe that I did not accomplish this to the best of my ablilty. I have allot of things that I should have done differently. lay out the composition, use different rubbing techniques, use a color, and not have the square affect witht he center axis composition. I liked that the starfish turned out rather well.

  1. Is this charcoal??? It is unbelievable if it is. I think you did a fantastic job !

    You mentioned that you wished you had used 'different rubbing techniques', I must explore that...
