Recently I have been experimenting with the overlay and layering of images. These drawings were all captured digitally with a VisTablet (VT-Muse) making it much easier and faster to experiment with certain compositions and layers. I printed the image twice, one on tracing paper, and then mirrored on normal white stock printer paper. Both pages were combined creating a mirrored and mimicked pair of the images layered one top of one another.The intersecting and overlap of lines create a very chaotic composition, both image layers trying to fight for visual dominance. I first drew the images with the tablet in hopes of loosening my hand giving things I drew a more free flowing and organic feel without wasting real materials that I own. When combined and layered the image details act differently and are seen as visual texture. Through the physical layering and the visual traits of mirrored images these layer drawings reference a sort of Rorschach image test.
More to come.
