Paco Pomet ๐ช๐ธ Granada, Spain โข New Paintings , by tab1 on Dec 12, 2018 21:39:40 GMT 1, Would have been better with the Cookie Monster in colour But as is it is very subtle and will add humour to guests on closer inspection As from a distance people not familiar with this work will view just a bunch of soldiers . And this is the whole point of the work! Emphasizing the Cookie Monster by having him in blue whilst keeping everything else b&w would add nothing to the image, in fact it would take away its appeal imo
Think the original from which the print is made is a study for the canvas

It would just be a image of a Cookie Monster. Keeping it b/w as the study was made is the one. |

Paco Pomet ๐ช๐ธ Granada, Spain โข New Paintings , by beicoblack on Dec 13, 2018 8:48:40 GMT 1, thanks...i do like the color cookie monster...not sure i am feeling the complete black and white over the original release...hes a bit more lost in the image....will be interesting to see these framed or an actual picture of the color release! Would have been better with the Cookie Monster in colour But as is it is very subtle and will add humour to guests on closer inspection As from a distance people not familiar with this work will view just a bunch of soldiers .
Now I am more than happy that he kept it all b/w.
A blue cookie monster would look a bit cheesy I think.
Pictures of the print are really nothing compared to the original look when you stay in front of it.
This is the best print I've purchased in 2018...

Emphasizing the Cookie Monster by having him in blue whilst keeping everything else b&w would add nothing to the image, in fact it would take away its appeal imo Everything Pomet does is about the addition of emphasised colour(s). Imagine your avatar in black and white.
In some works, yes, however this is not the case with Internacional. The way this print has been produced is in line with both the original painting and sketch - the Cookie Monster is there to be found as a โsurpriseโ which creates a twist to the scene, not to be the obvious thing that catches the eye at first glance, which would have been the case if it had been coloured in blue against the other monochrome tones.

Looks great, I presume you mean double mounted, not dry mounted. Shame to have covered the deckled edges though.
