p.s. I almost forgot-- this started out as an experiment in shades of ivory, prompted by IF. Much as I adore color, I've always been fascinated by the ivory carvings & grisaille work on altarpieces, &c. As with black & white photographs, there is a certain special clarity and depth about them. (I was thinking of these pieces when I did my Flea Circus painting too.)
Really fun!
ReplyDeleteA simple flip and a creativity jumps forth.
ReplyDeleteMr. Ghostflower is powerfully suggestive. I feel like sneezing! Hehehe! Ah such beautiful and fluid lines.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. What an eye you have, to have seen this image in your sketch!! So many treasures this week...Sprout...and those glorious shamrocks! Always a treat to visit.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. He's obviously a very cool character. Definitely an ornamental influence.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and your nice comment.
The darn thing's staring at me with those piercing eyes, but I..... can't..... turn..... away.
ReplyDeleteSo ornamental! An unusual spin!
ReplyDeleteHey! Well usually I have plenty to say but I must say how much I like the effect on this one - of course I like the design but the shading is wonderful. Same goes with the flea circus - it's a great starting point those ivory carvings and I see you have done them proud
