Earth Currents VIII

Pencil on WC paper, 7" x 18"


This series of works (earth current) acts as a buffer between major drawings, it get my mind in a new place and away from the thought process of my last drawing, Beyond the Pale.

This work it’s more about natural abstraction then drawing nature in a botanical sense, although it is very carefully observed and rendered. An artist has the ability to engage someone with an image that they would normal not see and just walk by it, like this three inch piece of turf underfoot. Every day people walk by this insignificant scene, never noticing, never looking, at some point I did. This work is all about composition, the movement of the individual parts is what draws my interest. Subject matter is abundant if you can truly see the world around you.
