About The Artwork
My daughter inspired me to turn this academic drawing of 2 heads into a full picture with figurative elements which suggest a narrative that the viewer can interpret themselves. I used soft pastel as a medium on paper and I haven’t used this medium in a very long time, like watercolor which I have recently been exploring after a long duration of no activity. Soft pastel is tricky and difficult, and to master it one must be very dedicated. I am no master of the medium, but this almost first attempt made me focus in a way I haven’t in a long time. It was strenuous work, to be honest. Also, there is the title, Older Brother. I do indeed have 3 older brothers so I can interpret this any way I so choose. However the viewer may see something entirely different than I do, which is what I want from the viewer.

My name is Carl Bowlby and I live in Western MA, The Berkshires, in the USA. I have been painting all my life but not "officially" until I took my first formal painting course in 1992 at New York University in NYC. I am a single father to a lovely 21-year-old daughter who is my love and inspiration. I hope you enjoy my work and see a place for it in your collection and on your walls! Thank you Saatchi Art and those art lovers who are always the backbone of any artist's ambitions.
