Daniel... and I thought I was going through an odd stage!
Maybe I should get some substance!!
Na... Dont think it would improve my skills at all... you are just unbelievably talented!
In my younger years around 15 or 16 I drew an entire face of a man made up of genitalia and body parts... I might have a search for it. I remember my art teacher at the time was really impressed and didnt growl at me because I ignored his lesson on watercolour to do it, instead he made a screen print of it and turned it into a t-shirt, and gave me some really good quality paper to 'doodle' on...
A few years later when I was doing my VCE I had Diane Arbus and Andy Warhol as my idols and had never heard of Giger , but was doing similar work. It wasnt until Uni that a friend bought me a book of his, I was blown away! I hated the uni course I was doing (psych nursing) and would spend hours drawing the cadavers and body parts we were meant to be studying in anatomy, after a year of doing this I left and started applying for a place in an arts or graphics course. It didnt happen I met my now ex a couple of months too soon, and missed out on that path!
Oh well... I am on it now!!
I find your work, all of it , just so inspiring! Thankyou!! |
