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.
In this drawing I only used a few marks. I ecied it was time for a few big important marks.
I pushed this drawing to have additional values. It’s not restful like I had hoped.
But I love this blue and the fabric feeling is imortant in this as well as many of my drawings.
Thread is a theme and an important gathering of marks.
I’ve always loved blueprints.
This drawing comes from that visual place. I loved making this and it feels so good to look at now after I have made it.
The thinest lines make the blue vibrate.
This is where what I’m doing in my studio came back to my drawing-a-day project. I have been punching holes in some paper lately and I decided to try it in a digital drawing.
This drawing has a physical structure that is compact and singular.
