Comments on: TIME to Act http://www.pgannon.com/papercuts/2008/07/16/time-to-act/ inspiration, illustration and the cut-paper art of Patrick Gannon Tue, 06 Jan 2009 19:47:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Andrea Kobayashi http://www.pgannon.com/papercuts/2008/07/16/time-to-act/#comment-53456 Andrea Kobayashi Wed, 06 Aug 2008 00:43:35 +0000 http://www.pgannon.com/papercuts/?p=156#comment-53456 Nice to see your background drawings. The papercuts have such a finished appearance, it's hard to know how you got there. When I was a teacher I used to plan lessons in my head by starring into space which was always mistaken for loafing. Other staff would walk past and say 'taking a rest??'. NB: I have added your blog to my bloglist. Nice to see your background drawings. The papercuts have such a finished appearance, it’s hard to know how you got there.

Yes, Time is a great client to have, and a pleasure to work with (there...<i>that</i> should get me my next gig!). As for my scribbling...um...sketching process, it's quite simple. Basically, I sit around starring into space (it looks suspiciously like loafing), then I feverishly scribble teensy pictures in my sketchbook, followed by more starring, then more scribbling, until magically an idea emerges. It doesn't look like genius, but it works for me. Thanks Matt and Francois! Yes, Time is a great client to have, and a pleasure to work with (there…that should get me my next gig!).

Great topic, I would like it ;) I like the first idea (with chimney) too, but the sumo is more ambiguous: does he still fight global warming or blow on it? Clever...

I'd agree, I love the Samurai and the smoke too but the Sumo and fan has so much iconic impact to convay the message (nice to glimpse you sketching process too). The torn paper fire is lovely stuff, subtle but highly effective. So that's what a Sumo's pants are called... I can stop calling it a sumo nappy now ;) Congratulations on the Time gig… nice client to have!
