This drawing is a bit of a jumble. Lots of new marks. Making new tools and experimenting.
I was very interested in making some open marks abd seeing what the spaces would have to offer when layered.
Unexpectedly I like it more than I would have imagined.
Lot’s of elipses.
Decided that would be the main shape in this drawing. Imagining layer upon layer of spinning gears.
The red really adds another dimension. It pulls me away from mechanical thinking.
Transparency and strange forms.
This drawing confuses me.
This just happened. I imagined the dots first.
I’ve come back to the familiar figure 8.
I like drawing that form. I like it even better when the form starts to take control of the drawing.
This is a lovely little bundle of marks. It feels like the stuff you pull out of your pocket.
Still experimenting with fewer of everything. I only used three different tools in this drawing.
Loving creating different forms by bending or repeating a mark.
I find these drawings relaxing and satisfying.
Only two marks and three colors.
What happens?
Still only a few marks again.
Quick thinking. Quick mark-making.
These are experimenting in a new direction. Clear layering, only a few tools and few colors.
Another drawing of large strong shapes.
Trying to keep it simple.
Sometimes when I draw there is nothing but the sound of my heart and the drawing medium on the surface. Other times in my head it sounds more like this.
