11" x 8.5" image on 13" x 19" archival mat paper.

Another from the Kill Bill movie.

It seems fun to do images from movies, I have a few I call my Kill Bill series I am drawn to do “stars” both from the movies & artists. They capture a lot of humanity. In the case of characters from movies it is more “Truth” than beauty. By the time the image reaches my Thousand Sketches project it has been in the hands of all the people you see on the credits of the movie, it is a social collaboration, and then I take a picture off the TV, and select an image from the 100s I take, and then I sketch & delete & select again. I think this is a form of mythologising, of distilling, of searching for the archetypal.


I create digital images, it is my form of daily painting. High quality prints are available please in limited editions, see details on my website: Thousand Sketches. Or email me walter@psybernet.co.nz
