These two images by Phil Wrigglesworth are a selection from a series of complex busy fight Giclee prints. A Giclee print involves squirting or spraying ink with great accuracy onto canvas or high quality papers, this process allows an extremely close match to the original artwork. Each of these images use a different reduced pallet of contrasting colours, used in bright blocks. Black line and detail creates a tonal range that suggests shadows. There is one tone of each colour used and no more each colour is carefully used to make sure there is distinguish between each form.
The style of the characters uses smooth lines and curved shapes, which have a similar appearance to a china doll. The arms and legs are curved and one smooth shape with some detail of clothing, this line gives more emphasis to the motion and action of the figures. In both prints the characters are all interacting mainly in physical ways, this involves lots of movement and shows strength in some figures. The overall appearance of these images is a strong bold impact with lots of detail, making an interesting image with lots of points of interests.
