Artist Research: Aubrey Beardsley
I am loving Aubrey Beardsley's work. His drawings make a big impression, even though they are in black and white. His linework is beautiful and delicate. I really enjoy all the white space and the flatness of the forms. It looks like his work was inspired by the Japanese woodblock prints.
I also really like how he incorporates patterns in his drawings. They aren't all over the place, but rather in specific areas that draw your eye in. The sense of narrative is great too. The figures interact with each other and have expressive faces. It's like he captured a scene from a story perfectly.
