yeah, Dase, the stippling always looks rad. I like my cross-hatching and stuff, but stippling sends me into a frustrated rage.

A lot of really talented people here!!

I have this stupid work ethic thing where I don't feel a piece is real or of any value or worth it or whatever unless I spend like twenty goddamn motherfucking shitting hours MINIMUM on it, hence the stippling. It's sort of become my thing and I kind of find it limiting but I just don't produce anything without it that I think looks anywhere near as good. It feels really weird deciding 'okay that's enough' with this exhibition and not pushing myself to try and cram in a final piece in the week I have left before it.

stippling I love looking at but I don't like doing cause more so I just stab the fuck out of the paper and the pens I use it just ruins the tips. But I love that work dase.

did this up today for a shirt design, I have been planning to do it for awhile I finally sat down and did it. Now I have to work on some others.

I like the first one the most.

hey pugie, i like this. has a real sense of presence. feels like you've managed to balance a japanese-nordic calm and stillness against the starkness of the 1930s german expressionist woodcut style. and your loose treatment of the textures of the landscape in the background contrasts really effectively with the stylised geometric simplicity of the figures and tree. has a strong sense of time and place too. for some reason it reminds me of some of david hockney's 1960s lithos and drawings:

if you are up for constructive criticism, i feel unsure about the way you've represented the space (with patches of grass?) between the figures in the foreground and the figure at the tree. they don't seem to reflect the same degree of consideration you have applied to the rest of the image. feel unconvincing and (possibly) too close to comic book conventions of grass. i get the feeling that you may have put them in last, either because you wanted to try to increase a sense of depth there, or felt awkward about leaving a big white space. but i think the relative proportions of the forgound and background figures already resolves the 'creation of a sense of depth' issue for you. leaving a space is nothing to be afraid of. it's the visual equivalent of silence in music. a very powerful tool when you can handle it well.
by way of a couple of random examples...

Hello! Thank you very much for your comment, very kind words. I definitely think your critique was relevant and I will take it with me.

Do you make art aswell?

Exhibition photos.

^ man those all look amazing. do you sell prints? i would hang those on my walls and i'm sure a lot of other people would.

I am one of those people.
I'm always broke though.
I missed dase's last brissie show as well (mostly cuz I'm lamein the balls).

That floating psychic cloak and the wizard of hand lake are freaking killer.
