Recent Print

Here is a three layer lithograph that I recently completed, part for my intermediate print class, but also to exhibit at the recent rock and roll litho show, which by the way, was a success!

Process Work


Just a little painting I have been working on in my sketchbook - more or less doodling between 'real' work, as in class assignments.

I just keep saying to myself, "It will all be over soon, It will all be over soon."

This exhibition consists of 29 other print artists - the common thread - lithography, and the awesomeness it possesses. I have one other print which I have yet to capture photos of, but I will at the opening, and I'll be sure to post them. So exited.


Ernst Haeckel - Proteus

Proteus

This is an amazing clip from a full feature movie/documentary - 'Proteus', about Ernst Haeckel and his contribution to the sciences, specifically the study of oceanic radiolarians <3.

Not only is Haeckel known for his numerous scientific discoveries, but also his triumphant feat of bringing what exists on a microscopic level to one we can visually perceive without the aid of a scientific tool. Ernst's beautifully rendered illustrations of microscopic data brought to life - breathtaking.


He is definitely my inspiration.
