Illustration Friday-Flawed
Click image for a larger view.
This is my entry for IF's "flawed" topic. Created today. Took two images of an artichoke, printed on vellum, painted the front and back of vellum, layering paint. Then tore one into vertical strips and one into horizontal strips and wove them together, for a very imperfect, flawed result, which I like. This is about 9 x 12 inches.
What do you think?

Very pleasing.
gorgeous! love the texture!
Interesting technique! The final image is very nice. Sometimes going for imperfection and disruption is the way to go.
Yes, I usually like to control things as much as possible, so I went with method that would force me to lose total control. Good practice!
Wow! Awesome! Love your take on the theme.
I think its wonderfully creative!!
i really like it. great idea. but i do think artichokes in general are kind of perfect. :)
Another fantastic piece. You continue to produce great work...Thanks for sharing!
nice pic and concept: michael dailey
Very beautiful, and what a fun technique!
Very cool. The colors and the texture are lovely. It reminds me of a pieced quilt square using watercolored fabric.
I really like this - beautiful work!
Nice work
I'd buy an entire book made like this!!!
What a work! and great illustration! I like it.
i think it is brilliant. hugs.
I think it's wonderfully clever! Great illustration collage. Fantastic I say.
Scott, excellent approach man. I like how you tried something different here - it works quite well.
Very interesting technique and beautiful effect!
Original, different from your usual! I like it!
Wonderful fun Scott, very nice.
i'm loving it! it actually looks like a very cool print :)
i like it! the colors' really great, and so cool idea!
That's such a creative idea! I'm sort of scowling at the computer screen going, "I wish I thought of that!" It came out really great.
Check that out.... that is awesome Scott. What a clever idea!
whoa!! Definately one of my favorites!! Awesome work Scott :)
Yes I like it to, and I admire [and envy a wee bit] your inventiveness.
Wow, excellent result from a cool process!
great technique! it looks fabulous.
fantastic work.. the textures are great..
That is pretty cool...great effect and great idea! That would be a great technique to use for a mag or book cover image...
I think it's beautiful. And what a clever approach to media. I like Brine's suggestion.
This turned out very nice. What a cool and creative new approach. It has a great rich texture.
I have to hand it to you Scott this is imaginative, orginal, and expressive and all hands free.. wow!! tee hee. seriously - great work. but I was looking for the hands
What do I think? I think I really, really like it! Not that I don't like your "handy" work mind you, I do, but it's nice to see your talent in other directions too! So well done, bravo!
love this! what a fabulous idea... and a great effect.
For some reason, I want to radishes? Can that fit in somewhere?
Really AWESOME concept Scott! I can see that done with so many other images...perhaps a whale?
Good Luck!!
