from the archives: always gonna be like that
my sketches are often in weird colours. finished stuff is toned down into the neutrals. this was from a few years ago when I went through a phase of using fuck-off bright colours for linework (click on it for full view - it looks muddy in the preview, but it's actually magenta. it's so not done justice in the preview). I actually like it, like a lot. I'm gonna do more of that. this is really simple but it's up there in 'favourite thing's I've ever done' territory tbh.
i bet the title is from some song, but I really don't know what. oh, it's prefuse 73! awesome.

The magenta is great. linework in colours other than black is so much more interesting
ReplyDeleteI like the little blade of grass one of them is sucking. Colour line art should be a riot of colours, otherwise there's not much point. The overall effect is interpreted by the brain to make it seem sometimes like a totally different colour scheme to any of the individual colours used.
