clear
In spite of an earnest effort to think outside the box/colour outside the lines/polka outside the mosh pit, when I read that this week's Illustration Friday theme was 'clear' I was stumped. So I sat with it a bit. What kept popping into my brain was the way the TV triage team always yells "clear!" when they use the paddles on a patient suffering from heart failure. So I googled defibrillator, drew one of my black velvet Elvis numbers (below) from the image I found (also below) and randomly photoshopped it. Perversely, I love how fuzzy my illustration of 'clear' turned out.

LOL! great take on the theme! love it!!
thanks for your comment on my blog :)
very neat style!!
ER, ahhhh! Always fancied doing that!
Great idea!
Andrea: What a terrific technic and style. I feel so proud to have actually been able to follow your through process--I love how woodcut-ty and distressed your image feels without it having to feel like it was "done" on a computure. Keep up the great work.
Hah! This is, of course, perfect! I like both versions too. Why do they say "Clear!" anyway?
Very funny Andrea! And how perverse of you to go for a fuzzy version of clear...
Carla: Apparently they say 'clear' so that anyone nearby will stand clear.
pretty amazing and inventive! I know no one will have an image like this so you won!!! Great work as always!
cool and unique!
you know you're always brilliant, Andrea. And yes, I'm having a happy birthday, thank you.
No flatlining here, another fine effort.
what an experiment! I know photoshop got some potentialities, but this looks really interesting...uhm
:)
Good take on this week's topic :) I really like the texture you've used for the final piece, it really adds depth to the piece.
Yay! A unique IF, and not something transparent! And it's real pretty too, strangely enough. I like your original better than the photoshopped version.
great illo...love it
Wonderful use of texture, and a great image from some not-terribly-promising subject matter. Brilliant stuff!
Wow, you made a sterile piece of equipment look beautiful. Electric even, pardon the pun!!! Great work Andrea.
You have your own cool style!
