Artist's Comments

It's not really a monotype, it's an offset but I couldn't find this category :P

This is one of my works which I did during this term in, let's call it, Printing Studio :D we were supposed to do sth b&w (then sth with at least 3 colours - made of 3 matrixes and sth made on a computer and transferred into an offset in some way). So this is the first one and I'm very proud of it :) I really like the idea and how it came out.

At the beginning I thought I would add some faeries here and there but my schoolmate told me that for the one time I may manage without them ;P that's why there's only one little spider there :)

Hope you like it ^^

Offset printing is an oft-overlooked medium, but Into the sky really takes advantage of the artistic opportunities it creates. *Adelaida, by using a monotone palette and the manipulation of negative space, guides the eye into a really visually appetizing scene.

This is brilliant Adelaida! Your friend was right about not adding the fairies.... the single spider adds just the perfect amount detail... turns it from a picture of some piles of dishes to a picture with an exciting story behind it. I would love to see you do more in this style and with this medium.

What an adventurous spider!

The simplicity is what makes this work, so I'm glad you didn't add more detail. :) Love it. The spider by its lonesome makes it looks like a bunch of dishes that have been stacked by the sink and left to sit for days...the kind of environment a spider likes to explore...and kind of like the dishes I had to wash this morning... :P (no spiders though)
