Artwork Details

DescriptionI’ve also started picking up some of Alex Raymond’s work, specifically Rip Kirby. Raymond was killed in a car crash at age 46, and the work he left behind shows a genius in the art form. Raymond’s use of blacks and shadows are extremely dramatic and cinematic. Seriously, these strips can be the subject of a class in inking. This strip from 1948 (from “The Terror on the Thames”) is an especially good example of using lighting to set the mood. Note how Raymond changes the light source from the protagonists in the first two panels from the overhead lights in the ceiling to the third and final panel where the bad guy’s face is lit from beneath by the dashboard instrumentation.Social/Sharing |

Fantastic. You know I love this stuff. Raymond doing stripes and patterns on clothing was magical.
