As explained earlier in some of my other posts,
just to push the confidence into ink work to really test the water of drawing talents. Without a eraser or other removal device, the hand is free to follow its own course, and creative construction lines which only appear apparent in the mind to guide the brush, pen, whatever.
I prefer the ink drawing to the left, great influence of character and pattern in the background. I wish to start experimenting with different ink equipment and waxes to help waterproof areas. Similar to wax and paint art that we all did as a kid haha; ill have to put some up. The character on the right i am less pleased with, but it was certainly fun building a character on paper over the mind.
Not only does the ink allow your hands to flow, it enforces the construction of shapes of a character with no idea whether it will turn out okay. Many times it may lead to disaster, but it is up to a bit of creative initiative, and sometimes a change of an idea to make it work.
I love this idea of the mask, or this case the gas-mask. Places more attention to the eyes, and how they truly stare into the readers mind. The use of the gas-mask also re-creates this synthetic look to the appearance of the person. The viewer almost doubts that the figure is a person at all.
Whether the gas-mask is necessary or why is he using it? Questions like these appeal to my work to ask the reason why. Or for viewers to try and ask me why. It's all a bit confusing, but the longer this construction of why and how in the mind, often the longer that the piece of artwork continues not physically to observe, but in their thoughts to reminisce over for days on end.
A similar post of mine which may maintain it's image from your memory -
'Timeless 2.0'
Similar to many artworks of Damien Hirst, I know I have linked videos to him before, but even now his work still maintains a place in my mind.
