Artist's Comments

You may recognise the basis of this image from earlier? It is based upon the 'My Darkness' Photograph but reduced into just black ink upon white paper to create quite a dramatic effect, less sinister than the original, but I would say, also a stronger image.

Great job. I like the style a lot. You should do more with ink, in my opinion. But I'm an ink-lover, so I'm partial. ;p

I actually do quite a lot of ink, but I just never get round to uploading it, on your advice I'll make an effort to I think, thanks for the compliment! If only I had the unlimited industrial quantities of the stuff I had at school....
