    Thanks Celesta for your nice comments. It's nice to know people's opinions either way !!

    Blackkat, I love your style of work. It puts out a real atmosphere. It takes you right there.

    Right...
    I'd love to invite more people onto this thread and ask them to take time to look through all the art work. Previous points argued the toss that it's pointless to know what MJK looked like, why even bother ; they all had faces ? But I think it's a way of expression that gives the artist that extra feeling of rappor towards the victims of these shocking, frustrating crimes.

    Most people like to have a face to the name, it's a natural human curiosity.

    So please, Hierarchies of ripperologists, don't dis us artist for sharing our oppinions, even if they are wordless.. they still are very meaningful !

      "Most people like to have a face to the name, it's a natural human curiosity."

      Ditto. I agree totally.

      I love to see other impressions, it inspires me, and I know it may sound cheesy but I love doing something that brings on that air of darkness,mystery and a feeling that makes a person want to hide.

          I wish we could get back the thread where you originally posted these because I believe we had a good discussion going on that one. Natalie was on there and, I believe, a couple more artists who had posted works on the site. I don't think there are many people who can say that they have not pondered what MJK looked like, or who haven't pondered over the physical appearance of suspects for whom we don't have photos. And who is to say that the vision you currently have of MJK or Kate or any of the women, might not change tomorrow and you'll be compelled to do a different drawing.

          Thanks for sharing your visions with us, All of you artistes!

            Hi BK,

            I really like this one. That looks like Evelyn Nesbit, in her Gibson girl days, up there in the northwest corner.

                  Hi John,

                  I don't know how I failed to notice this but the more I look at it the creepier it gets. Nice job.

                    Works in progress.

                    Here's a couple of rough backgrounds for some ideas I'm playing around with.

                      Strange, isn't it:

                      Those images made me wonder, that what did the original "Fisherman's widow" look like in Miller's Court Nr. 13?

                          • Hello Blackkat!

                            Thanks for the presentation!

                            Now; I hope, the Dutch members could make some kind of translation of their talks!

                            Written Dutch is relatively easy to catch, if you know German. But with the spoken Dutch... "Straat" is pretty obviously street, but the rest...

                              • Have you tried putting the card into your computer and trying to see if they pop up? Mine told me there wasn't anything on it, but when the photo studio put the card in their computer to load up the pictures, they were there. Hope you get them back!
