Here are two more for my "Holes" series. I keep thinking I've done as much as I can with it, and then I get obsessed with a new idea. The one at the top doubles as this week's Illustration Friday submission on the topic "puzzled."
Beautifully done! The words go perfectly with this weeks word. I admire how neatly you did the puzzle pieces in the top one. I tried to do that and my pieces took on a life of their own.
Etegami (e= "picture"; tegami= "letter/message") are simple drawings accompanied by a few apt words. They are usually done on postcards so that they can be easily mailed off to one's friends. Though etegami has few hard-and-fast rules, traditional tools and materials include writing brushes, sumi ink, blocks of water-soluble, mineral-based pigments called gansai, and washi postcards that have varying degrees of "bleed." They often depict some ordinary item from everyday life, especially items that bring a particular season to mind.
The first one is so poignant (brushes away a tear).

ReplyDeleteWow, nice! I particularly love the wonderful and delicate writing style. Both neat ideas! I really like the way you've cropped the apple.
ReplyDeleteThese are so good... and so true... The top one especially speaks volumes!
ReplyDeleteReally thought provoking! Love the application of color!
ReplyDeleteDebbie this is one of my favorite series. But then again, all your work could be my favorite. Your take on holes is so interesting.
