A little messy, but still, turned out...sort of okay. An echorche (cut away drawing) of the legs for my figure drawing class. We had one hour with a model to. Time: 1 Hr. Medium: Charcoal and graphite on paper
I’m fascinated in how something may make you feel. For instance, I’m deeply moved by images of outer space from the Hubble space telescope, but I do not try to recreate those photographs in my work. What does not exist in those photos, is how they may make us feel. This is why you won’t see any “realism” in my art. When we send astronauts to space, they can discuss factually what is happening, but what truly moves human beings is when astronauts describe how they felt while they were there. So, I choose to express how I feel, as opposed to illustrate what I see.
