Under-drawing
These are details from a large (7.5' x 4.5') drawing on paper I began over the weekend. There's already been one big bout of erasing and probably more (recorded and erased history?) to come. I like the back- and-forth rhythm between adding and subtracting, building up and destroying. I've been thinking a lot about how we remember ... and revise, and forget ourselves.
I just finished reading Paul Harding's Tinkers. Maybe that has something to do with it.

I'll enjoy watching this piece evole-devole. Good work my dear.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
-Pablo Picasso
I'm looking forward to seeing more.
Always amazing and wonderful. All the best.
I'm a strong believer in the power of literature as profound inspiration for life as well as great art...and the connection/relationship between them. I'd love to read some of your favorite pieces and see if I could find their influence in your work sometime!
