post-summer mega crit 26/09


I loved this page, although it's quite throwaway and diary-esque. There's something very melancholic about it. 


I always really like Amy Choi's miniature drawings, and these little vignettes are so charming. Although I've always known that I prefer 'analogue' work to 'digital' work, I'm think it's only quite recently that I've started to realise why that it, beyond the fairly superficial reason of being able to better appreciate the movement of the artist's hand. I find that I can better understand the time, and thought processes behind hand-rendered work. It's more interesting to think about. What makes people embrace embrace imperfection? 


Quite what it is about this drawing that I find so attractive, I don't know. There is a very graphic quality to the face in profile, which couples so interestingly with the very drawn, stylised lines.
