Untitled


I've been experimenting with different ideas and mediums over the past couple of weeks and really liked the outcome of 'white pencil crayon' on black paper as it creates this sort of surreal and slightly creapy feel to images.

Anyway I came up with the idea of mental decay or schizophrenia (as in being mentally all over the place) for the crash and burn ink soup. I'm not sure whether this is conveyed well in this (short & sweet) story or whether it makes any sense at all but heres what I came up with!

Wow really like the effect! Have you thought about trying out scratchboard?

The technique/media you've used really enhances the overall atmosphere.

Watch out Thomas Ott! Ed! The ability is there, the crudeness of some of the compositions needs to be ironed out!
