Lucky pig!
This week I've been doing nothing but working.
After finishing the Zomingos I finished the drawings for my upcoming artbook as well. Yesterday I prepared my screens and the model images and today I was in the studio, printing all day long. But I'm not done yet, so I'll probably continue my work tomorrow or on Monday. Now I only have 4 pages left for printing, so I hope the artbook will be done very soon.
Also I'm getting serious with my small exhibition! I already booked my unis gallery from the 30th of May to the 2nd of June. Yet I don't know if I'll open the gallery for two or for three days, because usually no one goes there and I'll be the one who hast to sit there during the opening times.
It's actually not worth the effort, but I don't care. I'd just like to see all my undead creatures (or actually any of my work) in a single exhibition for once in my lifetime. Though I'm still not even done printing all of them. Today I had a new idea for a screen print, but I haven't even sketched it yet.
(Plus I'm going to try and make the little sculpture I already mentioned.)
Today I was able to finish the Zomingos, after working in the studio for about 9 hours without taking a single break. At some point I only wanted to get over with it.
I'm exhausted, but now the only thing I still have to work on is the artbook. I'm so eager to finish this project, because I'm planning to make a little exhibition with my zombie prints and the artbook (Plus some little sculpture I was fantasizing about. I'm not sure if I'll really make it though, because I'm bad at making three-dimensional art lol). :)
Here's what my wall looks like now:
Here comes the 4th drawing for the artbook I'm currently working on. It's the headless horseman.
I actually wanted the picture to be a landscape format (so there would have been more comletely filled bookpages), but unfortunately that didn't work out.
I also think it looks too similar to the mambo picture I drew first, because of the white sun/moon in the background. So maybe I'll kick the mambo out and think up something different or I'll try and change the background (though I can't imagine in which way).
For tomorrow I planned to go on with the Zomingos (I already printed the blue layer of paint on Monday, despite my aching muscles), so I hope the printing studio won't be blocked by other people again.
I can't waint to finish these prints!
Yesterday I finally printed one of my big zombies!
I worked all day long (it's an edition of 12 prints) and now I'm feeling stiff and aching, so I'll have to waint until my muscles aren't sore anymore before I can start printing the Zomingos.
(I took the photo of it hanging on the wall of my workplace, so you can get an idea of its size (about 60 x 80 cm). Unfortunately I only had my crappy camera with me, thus the Brainwafer is out of focus.)
I didn't really get on with the artbook though. I still have only 4 (the 4th isn't even completely finished yet) pictures of 7 or 8 I'd like to do.
