Drawing, Drawing, Drawing, Gone


There's only this one drawing that I did earlier today, a 14x11 charcoal and pastel on gessoed paper.   I wanted to put the weight at the bottom.  Again, a still life as found in the studio, arranged unconsciously by Thor Wickstrom.  You could call it an 'act of Thor'.  I like the artificial atmosphere of an art studio.  Of course, doing studio interiors and studio still lifes has a long tradition.  But the artificiality is the same as the artificiality of art work itself.  But is there much real life without artificiality.   And vice versa.   You will notice that the drawing is of the same table as the yesterday's drawing, but from a different angle.  Old skull is still there.
