Tag As FavoriteComment		A depiction of Cobweb from A Midsummer Night's Dream. This is a monoprint combined with a pen and ink drawing. I am experimenting with the combination of abstract backgrounds and detailed subjects. Please go see the closer detail of cobweb herself.

Very beautiful. It's funny, because my friend who makes faerie costumes made a Midsummer Night's Dream set, and had me model cobweb. I guess he was supposed to be male, but she wanted to do more girlie ones, so she changed him? But you've drawn her as a her too...so maybe it's up to the individual 2

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "You know what I poured over Shakspeare, and re-read this play 4 times but I never found a refrence for Cobweb's sex. I figured that since Oberon's henchman was a male then perhaps Titania would have female helpers. Oh man would I love to have a Midsummer Nights Dream costume."

This is beautiful! I adore Shakespeare's works, and A Midsummer Night's Dream is by far, my all time favorite play. You captured Cobweb in a way I have never seen her done before. You made her unique and not just another one of the faeries. I love that. Great job!

LOVE THIS ARTWORK! And hope you don't mind me using this for A-level drama, for costume ideas!

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "Only if you remember to credit me for the idea. If you do make a 3d version of this dress send me a pic I would love to see it."

Ooooh I love this. I always love doodling quick versions of this kind of art. I love abstract. One day i want to do a proper, good absract drawing but I'm not patient enough. I want to get it done and see what it looks like. Anyway I do like this, well done.
