These are just awesome- I like that you think they are poor copies - you are so wrong - it's funny that you think the way you think. LOVE YOU! Cheers- eat a cookie and get fat- I certainly have and am...just in time to be Santa.

I always learn and appreciate something more when I take the time to study how it is put together. Sketching and copying make me focus and see the detail. I love the way you have used the printed page as a base for your "bad copy" book. Like I said before, I think you've added your style and improved on the works

I really like this bad copy series, your interpretation of all these different art styles, making them your own. Very interesting process.

I'm with Aimee! Including the word bad in any description of these just feels bad. I love the red string drawing - one of my favourites so far!
