Night #2

Observant viewer may already have noticed quite a bit of similarities between my Night linocut and this drypoint. Indeed, there are quite a few of them. Yet they pose significant amount of differences.

Why so? Because, I made them from the same sketch and if lino is more in line with the style of my other linocuts, this one is near direct copy of original drawing (which I may post one day, it turned out quite good).

Experimenting with different expressions of one motiff is a good way to not only train new techniques or approaches, but also trains artist in different ways of thinking. And of course as a nice bonus – expands portfolio quite a bit :).
