Cape
We leave for Cape Cod tomorrow. Melissa is teaching a lithography class and I will be "assisting" her. In order to demonstrate the technique we had to draw on some litho plates for the class. When you draw litho there is no erasing. You draw and don't make mistakes . . . right.
Oh, and you can't touch the plate either. I wore a sock from wrist to elbow and a rubber glove. I think the first plate took four hours to draw, it's 18" x 12", and three ultra fine sharpie markers:
Now that I've got the first one out of the way, I think I am getting a feel for how I need to work on these plates. I've been looking at a lot of Edward Gorey stuff for inspiration.
And a bonus digital image, in case you think I'm just sitting around the house and patting myself on the back about being unemployed for the next two years and left to my own artistic devices:
