MUSICAL CHIMERAS

Rabbit & Beaver

Boar & the chorus

Pig & Horse

Musical Chimeras is a series of artwork from the collection Playing with Old Masters. I used selected fragments of 16th-19th century etchings and woodcuts, cut them up, recombine them on the computer, colored, and created images that look like original etching. Essentially it's digital collage, but my tongue in cheek name for this technique is "Graphica In Silico". In 2007 I won an award of excellence for this work and was published in Communication Arts Magazine's Illustration Annual.
