Jim Dine - prints

Jim Dine was an American Painter,  graphic Artist,  Sculptor and poet. He was first noticed during the Pop art movement,  where he was noticed for his work on canvas which included the use of ordinary, everyday objects. During the 1960s, he was noticed for his work where he made prints of tools,  clothes and other household objects, including cutlery and paint brushes and bathrobes. As well as this work, he also made a series of images named,  "The crash". These prints were similar as they were only in black,  it is also noticeable that there is a similar technique and style within his work. Throughout his print work, Dine adds energy and movement by using various tone and line work. He also creates a detailed image through use of depth of tone and shadows A few of my favourite pieces include :
