More ideas for etching project
Tuesday, 21. October 2008, 16:50:04
I´ve been drawing some more hands as preparation for an etching on wood or linoleum.
I like the idea of "burning hands"... I´m just trying to show how hands can express feelings or thoughts, and this idea of a hand stretching out because of the heat has been wandering around my head for some time... Also, I think the way the outline of the hand is "broken" into small flames is interesting, when usually the normal outline of a hand is so smooth and continuous.
I want the background, on the contrary, to be simple, geometric and portray continuity...
I´ll probably use linoleum for this one.

Hmm, cool! I'm doing an etching in a G&T art program. The guy told us to go home and practise drawing what we want to do, but I can't think of anything! Do you mind if I use this design?

I would love to see what you did when you finish, and give you my opinion!
Good luck with the project!!!!!
