studio : 010111

Another year has passed 2011 has slid in.

It hasn't been a productive time in the studio. Usually I'm in there at least one day a week. I was lucky to get in once a month. I got ready for a late summer show in Oregon. Then I started a couple series of drawings and some new work on panels. The project using books called 9x9 should be called 3x3 and it's at a standstill.

It's been two months since I have had enough time to make the work I've had in mind. I've begun by sketching out some new ideas for a series of drawings. Tomorrow I've set aside time to layout and work on a the series of two panel drawings.

The drawings are typical of my palette this time of year. Mixed media with graphite, gouache, and charcoal. It's a time when the sky and the ground are much alike.

The drawings will be twins. A pair. Groups of two. Looking forward to laying down the grid. If all works well I'll have two sets of twins for the show.

I see some more opportunity for the new year. Working on getting into a rhythm now that home has settled down and the office is back into swing.
