Xerox Face: Demo



A particularly grotesque demo this semester for the subtractive value study exercise: 18x24" in maybe twenty minutes w/charcoal + white chalk. Debatable whether such imagery is inspirational or not, but should make for a nice Facebook profile pic on Halloween though. Also be a good ad for why some folks really need to lay off so much coffee in the morning.

"I have designed my style pantomimes as white ink drawings on black backgrounds, 
so that man's destiny appears as a thread lost in an endless labyrinth. 
I have tried to shed some gleams of light on the shadow of man startled by his anguish." - Marcel Marceau

  1. I'm not sure--it could be a brilliant example of why more people should hit the coffee even harder.
    This was one of my most and least favorite assignments, by the way.

  2. Ya - maybe I should stop using it as a freakin' nightcap then I guess (though it helps get one up every few hours).
