Continuing my posts profiling the design and creation of art postcards that I have been making and printing. On this occasion I am looking at assorted batches that I have made in the past…going right back to the earliest designs in 2006 and some subsequent batches from the following few years.
Title: Pink, Purple and Black -©2006 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. Some rapid rubber stamping here…like dancing to a visual cacophony of pounding…I try to stamp in time to music…the repetitive stamping without stopping for re-inking results in the layers of ink gradually fading as the ink runs out. Title: Abstract No.14 -©2007 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. Another instance of percussive stamping and printing and the overlaying of a Japanese language character. Title: The Jewel Box -©2007 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. This set is gentler, more composed and offset with a rectangular tracing of coloured carbon pink pencil. The Graphic Guitar -©2008 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. The muddled shape is wet, inky, brown and textural.Mountainous blue view landscape -©2012 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. Plus a couple of cards in the vertical format, above and below, steep, blue and textured.Mountainous blue view landscape -©2012 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. Same, but different…from the variations on a theme box.And heading towards the completion of this little set, Abstract Pink on Blue -©2010 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics…another from the scattered, broken shapes domain. To conclude this post, I am moving from the abstract to the figurative with my postcard Black Bird Landing -©2011 Dr. Michael Hill a.k.a. Doctor Comics. (All text, photos and artwork-©2020 Dr. Michael Hill aka Doctor Comics).
