"untitled" Drawing

One of my old works on paper made in 1965 whilst studying at Manchester College of Art and Design. I remember making the drawing which was during a period when I also drew power plug sockets on the wall and hot and cold taps above the sink… the studio obviously provided banal subjects which attracted my thoughts, eyes, and any art materials in my hands. I’ve always regarded this 56 x 56 cm Talens & Co Rembrandt pastel crayon on paper piece as a “technique exercise” which I chose to keep… it was literally as near as possible an exact copy of traces of crayon remaining on the college studio wall from three previous pieces I had made. However, after watching a couple of short films on Richard Diebenkorn I noticed a similarity to my own drawing with the open areas of flat colours and hints of diagonal lines. Whilst mine is much simpler or more minimalistic compared to any of Diebenkorn’s, there is a graphic similarity which I couldn’t have copied from seeing his work since it was made at least two years prior to his “Ocean Park” phase.
