Roussillon

The following posts are a series of images representing the inspiration and realization of a large colored drawing I've been working on. The photographs were taken from Roussillon - a small village in the south of France which is situated in the heart of one of the biggest ochre deposits in the world. I was particularly fascinated with two things about the ochre quarries: the red, yellow and brown shades of earth that formed a striking contrast with the green pine trees and the vivid blue of the Provençal sky and the multiple layers of cliffs that produced some wonderful lines throughout the rock formations.

I used these photographs (along with a piece of bark that I broke off one of the trees) as inspiration to create a colored line drawing without using any white or black. (As opposed to the previous line drawing that I posted using only black and white).

TAXONOMY

The following posts is a project I've been working on for the past few weeks. It is a collection images of things that I am interested in. There are 110 cards total, all on 5x7 sheets of paper, using a variety of different printmaking and drawing techniques, gathered together in a ladder-slipcase box. The concept of the project was to create a personal image bank to show the way in which I think, create, etc. Thanks to all of you who helped contribute to the "Memories: Tell me a story" part of the project.
