Adding you because your exquisite linework gives me great pleasure, and wouldn't mind being able to admire it on a regular basis. :)

hello,
I just found this site linked to PJ Lynch's blog where we had the discussion about Dulac's work, and someone complimented you so I took a look. Your images for the Rubaiyat are stunning. Breathtaking.
Now I will ask you as I asked PJL - would you share what paper you are working on? --- you have achieved Dulac's beautiful transformation of the paper into atmosphere.....
In my own work I am struggling betw a smooth enough finish to achieve fine lines vs the right texture-finish for the larger areas of blended color. Would you share your paper and/or any advice?
Thanks so much, (I have added this journal to my desktop, beautiful work)

Hello Ellen ( ... )

Re: omg anonymous February 17 2010, 23:15:57 UTC

Hmmm, so in one way you have answered my question , in that, clearly you are able to attain that wonderful mottled texture no matter WHICH paper you use. So it is in the HAND and not the paper --lol ( ... )

Re: omg anonymous February 18 2010, 20:33:12 UTC

OK I have answered my own question: I spoke with a woman who has some of Spirin's work in her gallery --- hot press. SO the texture is in the paint, not the paper (sorry to be having a conversation with myself here, but thought it might be interesting...)

Anyway, I will enjoy seeing more of your work as you post it, you are truly gifted.
Ellen

Hello Lisa and welcome! :) I'd been wondering if you were on LJ too. :)

Re: Hi there, fellow dAer. teriathanin February 18 2010, 17:27:32 UTC

I have been, for far too long! Though I've been lax about it lately. :) Didn't realize there were so many nifty folks to follow on here.
