Artist's Comments

This is an etching of Gillian Anderson. If you are a guy and don't know who that is, you should be shot. If you are girl and don't know who that is...you are lying.

O.o Are you calling me a liar? >.> I think I saw a bit of this pic on the spine of a binder you've got on your desk or something... but that's all I recognize her from. What's etching?

You can't tell me you don't know who gillian anderson is.
Etching is a printmaking process where you scratch through a printing plate (this was plexiglass), rub ink into the lines, and run it through a press. This is something I'm sure you would really enjoy...if we had the press to do it with. Lindenwood will have one I'm pretty sure.

Etching sounds like fun--this turned out lovely. Sorry, I don't know who Gillian Anderson is either.....

ever seen the X-files? I took a horrible picture of that print. I hope you checked out my drawings...I think they are a lot better than the prints. Mostly charcoal

...ahhhh, X files--OK, thought the name was familiar somehow. I dont' watch much tv but I have seen some of those episodes.

I did visit your gallery and like your charcoal drawings (especially the self portrait). I don't use charcoal much--it's messy. How do you control it? Do you use pencils or sticks? How do you pick out your highlights?

I usually use pencils now. I used to do a lot of drawings with sticks of charcoal, but it's just too hard to get fine detail. Pencils aren't too messy if you use a blending stump instead of your fingers.
I usually draw from my own digital photos, so I can set it up however I want it. I try to do as little with photoshop as possible, but...you know.

What brand pencils do you use?

I will use charcoal once in a while for the darkest darks of a graphite drawing if I can't get it as dark as I want without it, but I find charcoal pencils 'feel' so scratchy they give me that 'scatching a chalkboard' feeling so I'm wondering if it's just the brand I use.....
