Woman Reading Drawing

Inspired by genre painting, expressionism, comics, Robert Crumb, Rembrandt, and Watteau, my latest series of small drawings emphasize bold line work and varied texture to capture private, everyday moments of an individual. Modest, meditative, intimate moments of life - reading, working on a computer, relaxing with a cup of coffee, sitting in thought - are turned into art. The emphasis is placed on the whole figure and simple gesture. Unnecessary background details have been eliminated. It is a fusion of a portrait and a still life. It is a still life made from a human figure rather than inanimate objects like fruit and flowers. The drawing technique is loose, spontaneous and doodle-like but still representative. It is an unselfconscious style, appropriate for the subject matter, that has evolved naturally over time as I have created more and more drawings.
