This drawing incorporates a lifetime of observation, experimentation, and gratification from visually translating observations. Visually interpreting the model, her warmth, her thoughts, her center, her space, and even the blood flowing through her body are all being channeled through the medium. This woman was confident and comfortable. When I draw, I invite the audience through an implied line or an implied idea. It gives a sense of gratification and accomplishment to the viewer who is invited into the drawing to finish the implied line with the perfect line that only that viewer can envision. The viewer, therefore, takes ownership of the image through this experience. What a gift a drawing gives when it invites the viewer to participate in finishing it! The medium inspires and even motivates the mark being made. The specific techniques incorporated in this drawing have been evolving since 1991, while on a yearlong, professional sabbatical in New Zealand. Priming the paper with house paint creates a subtle relief of the brush strokes which interact with the graphite sticks used to make the marks, therefore, the house paint often presents another (drawn) mark within the drawing. Brushing a cloth over the graphite creates volume or directional definitions of the body. The desire to touch the subject via the drawing is part of the seductive and passionate form of the drawing. The inventiveness in this process was where these drawings began. This mark-making process is so invigorating and fun!
