Emma

portrait of emma goldman, ink and watercolor annnnd stuff. frida kahlo next!

 

wow! I love it, there's sound in your work! There's a little jugenstil in a modern way into it, it moves, great job! Aldo Im not really sure about the text you use, I can't read it, but thats ok, becaue it becomes part of the pictural aspects of the work, thats just something to watch out for.

 

thanks! hmm I'm not sure how much I wanted it to be legible. mostly was aiming at filling the clothing in. I was going to write more quotes from her in tiny writing just to fill it in more...
but just for the record, they are her words:
"when we can't dre(A)m any longer, we die" also, "I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck".
It's pretty big in person I think that makes it easier to read.
thanks for the input and such

I wish "Die" could have ended up differently. I sorta fucked that bit up...oh well!

 

Wow, you're extremely talented. That's amazing, I really like it alot.

Can't wait to see the Kahlo one! I actually named my dog Kahlo, after Frida Kahlo.

 

INBLOOM thank you kindly...Frida rules!!! As does Kahlo I spotted him/her in your pictures.

now I'm not quite sure what I did to delete the image but it's in the gallery thing iff'n anybody else is interested.
