I had planned to work on research this week, to advance what I consider my last research project. But about a third of the country is frozen today, so I decided to get back to the studio for the day. Not really painting … just working on a few of the paintings in the pipeline …. one in particular: a figurative piece of one of my favorite models. Josie. The working title is Window … but as the composition evolves … I’m starting to think of it in terms of activating (and elevating) the shadows. So … working on the composition … photoshop and paper sketches. The idea I was trying to articulate was: don’t forget to look in the shadows!
And then I looked up from my drawing desk and saw this.
