Just started a new piece and the ink didn't dry with enough time to add anything before bed, but take a look at the first step, a simple ink drawn silhouette of a figure on canvas.
The silhouette seems to be coming through a lot of my work lately, especially in this simplified, ink-drawn form...I really like the variation you get within the black while still creating that strong, bold image and it lends a lot of seriousness to the figure...it gives it weight that you expect to lead somewhere, and so, I think it helps the viewer begin their interpretation...
This piece is going to end up much more colorful than this, but take a look at a couple of the other pieces that have kicked off this silhouetted series...
