Very interesting to look at, and the red and black swirls around the forks seems very dark, and almost morbid and violent... Very pretty.

Beautiful Deco-work. I assume it's for your book? Miller's bound to love it, but don't work for her.

This? No, this was just for me, it's not even in my book. I'm going to end up giving it away for christmas, though.
I work for myself! No teacher can really make me do anything.
Thanks for the compliment.

Superneat. At first I thought it was an altered book spread. I like the chaotic feeling the image has.

ThatGuyOnTheStreet [2004-12-10 04:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Mmm, thanks for bringing back the forks and soda can tabs.

You never get old.
Or moldy, for that matter.

I bet I could put you in the pantry for a few months, and you'd come out smelling just a little like urine.



Oh, and a fave by the way. Chaos suits you so well. Vibrant black and reds too.

lostharmony [2004-12-10 04:07:11 +0000 UTC]

a fork this time... not a spatula.. i see.
i love your paterns and use of everyday objects.
is the writing your own? does it mean anything in particular?
i love all your color pallets.
in this peice, the composition is almost overwhelming, but the circles and forks and keys and soda tabs break it up nicely. i also like the hint og green contrasting the red. this is a really awesome peice, sir.

Hamrick In reply to lostharmony [2004-12-10 04:10:11 +0000 UTC]

The writing is indeed, my own. I haven't posted any of it yet, though.
Thanks for the comment, I like that it made you think a little.

About the green, half the painting was green, but gesso and red swallowed it. There's probably five or six layers to this! More than I've done before, I think.

If I post the writing, I'll link you, and it's about a girl.
