for the longest time i was stuck in a world of color. this was a pleasant place to be, i argue it's the BEST place to be. But Ted Wolter (at CGCC in AZ) sent me on a different path. I hadnt touched the black and white world in years and just about lost touch with it. Ted helped bring me back into it with the wonder of charcoal and conte crayon, and not to mention willow charcoal and the eraser (the secret of the photgraphic quality of this peice).. i find im pretty good here, in this black and white world...if not better than i am in the color world.
I WON AN AWARD for this one (ha, just wated you to see that)...well it was chosen along with 10 peices in all of Maricopa Community Colleges to be entered into this contest. i understand why it didn't win anything up there, all it demostrated was a matured understanding of the basic princples of design-and not all of them btw...all this, but with no real conceptual aim. i guess that would land this peice no higher in the art world than cowboy art.
