HEY!!! very very cool this is similar to a rodney mathews poster from the 70’s or early 80’s (he was an iconic artist for that era and the bands of the time and he still rocks) though this has a more new energy like it could be used in a splenda in the grass type of advertising campaign or something bigger. great work i love it.
Sarah ORourke replied
Aw thankyou SO much, you’ve put a huge smile on my face!!! Funny enough the ink line drawing was actually done whilst up in Byron… wouldn’t i love to do a Splendour poster though?!!!
Hmm i’ll have to look up Rodney Mathews from the sounds of it, before my time :)
JP100
yes rodney mathews was just a bit before your time i really loved his works they started me realy focusing on artworks specificaly at around 3 or 4 years old and that was 30 years ago (33 now) good luck getting the contract for a splenda (splendour) poster and band advertising you have the skills it usually gets handed to the graphic design studios now though but you never know your luck in the big city so tally ho! once again great work!

Again, that symmetry – and the dark black markings that pull us in further. The eye at the center – magnificent.
Your ultra positive nature shines through…
Sarah ORourke replied 9 days ago
Thanks Cynthia… this was drawn particularly for someone special… both the B & W & the colour versions actually… & both are people that have been instrumental in that positivity so the fact that shines through makes me smile :)
