After the Critic”

This entire image was drawn, including all the tape, torn paper, and background mat board.  It is self-portrait that depicts what an artist has to do after a critic “rips them apart”.  Artists are usually sensitive people to begin with, so I find it interesting that many people feel it is perfectly acceptable to tell an artist that their work is terrible.


This image is now available as a limited edition print. If you are one of the first 50 people to order you will receive a discount of over 20% off the issue price for a signed and numbered limited edition of 750. This special price is $95.00 unframed or $165 framed. To receive this offer you must be one of the first 50 people to order. The 20% increase in price will be both at my art shows and on this web site.

To reproduce the extremely  subtle value changes in this drawing I am using a new method of printing called a Piezograph Giclee. The result is a high quality reproduction that is nearly indistinguishable from the original drawing. This printing method is a little more costly than traditional off set lithography and but I feel the result is well worth it. You will swear that the tape, photo and string are three dimensional!
