Small worlds
Today is a day for organization, archiving and 'show entering.' These are three recent pieces in a series called "Soil Sample." (You can see a couple of others in the March 12 and April 5, 2011 posts)
As usual, some more successful than others – the reason I like to work in series. Underdrawings of ink pen were layered with paraffin, china marker and a few bits of color to ponder again the worlds of fragments that make up everything.
I like how the drawings seem to be progressing from passive, floating environments to more active, almost battlefield-like scenes.
Soil Sample III, IV and V

I love the music of these pieces. Well done!
Yay show entries! Keep us posted.
Whenever I look at art, I always determine how it makes me feel by the memories of past experiences that it invokes. With Soil Sample IV, the first thing I thought of was traditional Japanese art finger waves. It looks nothing like them, yet somehow still has striking similarities...go figure?!
