Some new etchings., by Oliver Garland on Dec 22, 2007 15:06:51 GMT 1, These are some of the new etchings iv done just experimenting with the media and putting it in a different context. The etching is a copy of Goya's Los Caprichos plate. It was originally called "The sleep of reason produces monsters" Just tell me what you think of them. most of them arent finished, but the first is the closest. Thanks Ollie. The paper cuttings are from the yellow pages and iv used chinese collage etching to stick them onto the plate and transfer them to the paper. I think. anyways, they are playing on the idea of contemporising old art, if thats a word.

Someone beat me to it , I wanted to see it finished because I really liked what you showed of it, when it was a work in progress.
I should have asked you about it a lot earlier.......

Some new etchings., by darjeeling on Dec 22, 2007 17:53:00 GMT 1, I like what's going on here, I love etching and chine colle and I think these look good, but then again all I can think of when I see these are Jake and Dinos. They did their own remix of this Goya a few years back. (I'm not trying to be an ass by pointing that out, hard for me to get past that though)

Some new etchings., by Harveyn on Dec 22, 2007 17:56:38 GMT 1, Hi Ollie
Good to see you post some more of your work. A fairly dramatic switch in styles. I like this stuff very much.
I must say you show a lot of talent as an artist but I see patience is not one of your virtues (post new work at 2:06pm and 2:42pm complain no one has commented!!!)..... ;D ;D
Keep up the good work and please don't leave it as long in between posting examples of your work.... ;D ;D

Some new etchings., by Oliver Garland on Dec 22, 2007 17:58:30 GMT 1, Yeah, there not really reflective of my own style as Im still finding it, I was just experimenting with the medium, I am aware of Jake and Dinos Chapman's (my christmas present arrived this morning - one of there etching's) work and am a huge fan of Goya's. The idea is the same, but I think there execution is different. This was just experimenting, as foundation is all about that.
