Artwork Description:
Started on this drawing last Monday.. 4 hrs. straight
... with new Polychrome Colored Pencils.. Did a drawing with these a while ago, after I discovered
these colored pencils.. something new.. and it was
offered on sale in Germany.. "If you only knew.." it is called and on this portfolio under drawing other..
Well... I was attracted to the black paper... off and on am.. not often.. soooo much work involved..
for me with a drawing.... discovered that again....;-) Have been house sitting at my best friends house..
sanctuary for me.. for 4 days.. and all this peace.. day
after day working with light strokes of hues.. you
see it here with 8, (10 even on some places-) layers of different colors.. from reds, to purple to yellow,
turquoise, greys.. no white.. what appears.. here as white, are layers of yellows, greys etc. is starting to
get beautifully moving.. with the water around the rocks collecting in puddles.. the rings around them..
the touch when water meets rock.. saturations of water, where it gets real wet and stays !! wet and
dark.. other places, where it has dried due to lower water levels in between... or winds not swooshing
the water up.. greens gather around them.. inch by inch tells you exactly.. so.. we will see, how many
more layers of different hues it will take for me, to be content with the results.. as it is in my brain and
core.. the feel of it.. can even feel the temperature in the air.. the touch with your bare foot in the
water, when you balance on a rock, just testing, how it feels.. the look into the forevers.. wayyyy
back there.. when the land is giving space to the water and the horizon.. moon touched? will see....
after hundreds and hundreds of strokes... line next to line,. overlapping.. smoothing.. cutting.. connecting.. seperating-- creating shape.. mass... within once void.. exept black.. where creative eye
has found a 'becoming...' of something beautiful, enriching.
