#17 - The Comedy of Errors

 
I'm pretty sure I will have the privilege of doing the poster and program for San Jose Youth Shakespeare's "The Comedy of Errors". This is easy for me to get excited about, and picturing an image was not difficult. My daughter suggested using the playing card motif again since the play is all about twins. The drama masks just seemed like the right fit, and I didn't have to draw realistic faces.


This is still in the sketching stage, and there are things I want to improve about it, but overall I'm very pleased about this piece. Now: can I manage this fine carving, and can I line up 5 colors? I think you can see the piece full size if you click on the image.

I hope that the director likes this, because I really want get started!

I'll get back to your print soon, Dancer...
