Gossip and Rumors

This piece is comprised almost entirely of pages from some celebrity gossip magazine someone left at my house (I’m not naming names). There are a couple pieces of painting to add relative negative space, but that’s it. Sorry for the glare on the photo.

The design is comprised of nested hexagons. The piece was a rarity for me, in that I started it and finished it in almost the same day. I did a few touch ups last night, but otherwise the entire thing got done on Sunday.

Any feedback is welcomed. I would love to be able to do things this quickly more often, but am a little suspicious about my ability to think in the detail I like to give to things in such an abbreviated time frame.

After the jump, I’m posting a detail and, because I’ve done it so often before, I’ve decided to make it a regular feature to post a music video to accompany each piece I post. This week, I give you “Rumors” by the Timex Social Club.
