I thought this was an ironic title, since Mana never speaks, but he is so influential to me with his music, fashion, and beauty.
This is a reduction Linocut, the same block was used to print all the different colors, so i had to carve it one shape at a time, starting with the lightest color. This took a very long time for me to do, about twice as long as everyone else (as far as I know) because I wanted to make it so detailed. But, because of this, I'm really proud of it! This is my favorite project from printmaking class so far.
It's not lined up 100% perfectly, but I don't think it's TOO distracting. Also, I cleaned up a few stray marks after I scanned it, but basically, this is unaltered!
Mana is formerly of Malice Mizer and currently of Moi Dix Mois! And he's AMAZING!
Though I'm not at all a fan of pretty boys in that sense, I do commend your work my dear. You did take twice as long as anyone else, and the percision and time paid off. It's a lovely print indeed. ^_^ Your color mixing was right on too.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
