Sound


This is quite possibly my favorite print of all that I made last week. This and the collaborative one with Mike's image from the touch portion of the class. I've entered them both into the University of Tampa's Alumni exhibit.

Ricks sense of sound






















I have several variations of this print. After playing the tibetian bowls I was inspired to represent sound and the movement that comes from and is produced by sound. The moving of the wind and space is something extraordinary, and capturing it is something I have wanted to do for some time now. Balancing the visual elements and the theoretical elements in the piece is key to making a successful piece of art. I feel I have a good balance, and the composition and visual elements make the piece successful. Color, composition, line quality and movement all play vital roles in my "sense of sound" piece.
