How different it must be from the Melville project where you created without the constraints of the finished product. Can't wait for this one to be finished so I can add it alongside the Moby Dick book!<br /><br />Good luck moving through the jungle.Sandy Longhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735445958970512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-8269955726829792372012-10-11T08:55:45.734-04:002012-10-11T08:55:45.734-04:00Thank you Sandy.

I was really so pleased with my first attempt at this page (which you can see <a href="http://everypageofmobydick.blogspot.com/2012/06/heart-of-darkness-page-015.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>) so in some ways it was emotionally draining to have to create it all over again. After lots of effort and headscratching though, my art director at Tin House let me know that the double page spreads just weren't going to work. Too much of the image was getting lost in the gutter and nothing was helping that. It would have to be re-drawn and reconfigured as a single page piece. In the end, I am quite happy with how it turned out. It still has that sense of stagnation, and paralyzed force, and I am actually a bit happier with how I've visualized the encroaching jungle.Matt Kishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854685960260054407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-79150244254139673042012-10-10T16:08:47.724-04:002012-10-10T16:08:47.724-04:00Incredible!
