Description Wild at heart...Wild in imagining the flow of shapes, color and emotion intertwining into a comprehensible image...

...or maybe the first assignment in my screen-printing class. Required to have mirror images, the use of at least 3 colors, and make use of objects coming together to form a new object (op-art).

Comments and critique welcome.

I'm with FrauleinAngst on this one - I also thought of Hendrix. I also see a contrast in themes here. The outside images are lively, sunny, straight out of a fun colorful psychedlic sixties rock poster, and then just as naturally, they come together to form... an ice-blue skull.

Really cool! - didn't know you were taking art classes- not much that's funner than that
*turns green with envy*

makes me think of Hendrix and drugs . . . . .
I really like the color choices too.

I'll have to it!!

You have accomplished your goal here, and quite well, I might add. However, your black and white prints are much more dramatic. It is difficult to learn to use color with the same effect as the monotones. (weren't they a group in the 50's?)

Good stuff~!

This made me laugh out loud - the Monotones certainly sounds like a group name...I agree with your comment regarding the dramatic feeling evoked by black and white...we'll see on the next one.

I think this colours are to "light", they don't fit to
the theme (o godness my horrible English...)
Do you know what I mean. I would take
deeper colours...perhaps.
Perhaps you will show this dissonance...
I don't know

I agree with the comment on the lightness of the colors...my professor said I couldn't use black - she is trying to push me out of my comfort zone...and quite successful I might add.

no, your English is perfect. That is exactly what I mean. Contrast may be the word you are looking for. Depth of color from light to dark. I love the print you did, but it is just very different from your others.
