Gemini Sketch

All part of my series.

This will be Gemini - the sign of the Twins.

These are works done in my own style of cartooning. I want to make a deffinition of myself as an artist/cartoonist with my own style and characters. So I picked a theme that can't be copyrighted and isn't already done in someone else's style. I don't want to be a totaly a Fan-Artist because I want to have my own identity. Fanart is fun - but it is always still someone else's work.

"There's nothing wrong in copying other works," I said. "But, the problem is that the more you talk about the other artist, the more insignificant you'll become. On the other hand, the less you talk about his work and more about yours among your friends and other artists, the more popular you'll become and the greater value your artwork will have." Then I bluntly added, "The more you talk about other artworks, the more you slowly start to die. The less you talk about their works, the more you slowly start to live. You cannot live under the shadows of the great artists. You need a little portion of the sun's rays."

Hey - I deserve some of those sunrays too! Time to try my own thing and find confidence in it. And not how well I can carbon copy existing cartoon characters.

It was tricky thinking up an image for Gemini. I didn't nessisarily want it to be 2 humans. I wanted something cute, and mirrored. So I made Gemini a couple of identical pups.
