ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Mixed media painting / drawing / collage on white paper. Layering technique: collage of different coloured papers on white paper, then acrylic white and fluorescent red paint, and finally ink, charcoal and pencil for drawing outlines and the shading. Drawn from a life model dressed wearing a huge black hat and a transparent piece of cloth. With this and another couple of works from that year I started playing around with proportions and exaggerations. This work is another one in an ongoing series of studies of figurative life drawings exploring the interaction of clothing and the human body. Loosely inspired by artists like Toulouse-Lautrec and, of course, Egon Schiele. Signature and date (2018) on front in the lower right corner. Format: 29.7 x 42 cm The artwork can be framed. Please note that a frame or hanging device is not included. PLEASE NOTE: Due to the technique applied the artwork did not turn out entirely smooth. It has some creases, best seen in the additional photograph of the back side if the artwork. I decided to still make it available as an original, as I find the creases somehow match the rough punky style of the drawing and the figure. Please see additional photographs to decide whether this is something that will bother you or not. (An open edition print however will be completely smooth.)

“My works are drawings or collages or a combination of both. All of them are on paper or cardboard. I like working with rough, found materials, they have a liberating effect on me. I have an extensive collection of old coloured paper which I use more or less like paint: I place patches of paper, draw or paint over it, glue more paper of a different colour on top again and so forth. This technique allows unplanned shaping, meticulous modulation, and endless rearrangement all at the same time. Drawing to me is not so much about the result on paper as it is about the process of close observation. While examining somebody or something, the object often becomes strange and somehow new to me. I like that feeling of entering the unknown, and the attentiveness and concentration that comes with it. I have a certain fascination with faces as well as with the dressed figure and the interaction of clothes and body: shapes, transparency, silhouette, colours. I prefer working with life models rather than photographs which again has to do with the experience of close observation, maybe also with that special silent atmosphere when working with somebody real in front of me.”
