ALT: graphite and watercolor. three faces so close that they are touching each other, the middle one is smiling widely and the other two are enjoying more quietly, and musical staves weave among them. I was fortunate to attend a concert of a trio led by John Zorn this evening. This drawing is not at all portraiture, but a representation of how wonderful it was to watch the communication and precision among the musicians as they produced sometimes gloriously chaotic-sounding noise.
ALT: crayon and ink, abstract-ish. There’s something that looks like a fan of flames (it started out as a flower) rising up the middle, and three small blue creatures sit at its base. one seems to sleep, one is maybe sitting, one stands, sort of, though it doesn’t really have legs. This drawing was a bit of a journey, and I wouldn’t have minded burning it in the end.
ALT: crayon and ink, abstract with imaginary calligraphic writing that someone told me there was a word for, but I have forgotten it and don’t have time to look it up right now. swoopy primary colors in crayon, overlaid with black ink washes and squiggles.
ALT: crayon and ink, a purple cat is stretching, or reaching through, or playing with angular tangles of red, gold and black lines like tangled thread.
ALT: ink, watercolor, crayon doodle of three pointy and irritated-looking creatures. They look a little like fish-birds. Sort of brown and gold, on a blue-purple background. There’s also a little imaginary calligraphy floating around them.
ALT: I was gifted a set of rubber stamps of skeleton parts! so this picture has bones scattered all over it. there are two skull with crowns on them, and lines of arm bones to make the frame. some badly printed roses and butterflies from another stamp set, and a very sweet sitting mouse printed down at the bottom. all the rubber stamp prints are tied together with sweeps of color and some pencil shading. it’s a pretty chaotic mess really, but it was really fun dragging out some of my rubber stamps after a long while, and going to town with them.
ALT: crayon and pencil drawing. the face of an orange cat peers through some grassy weedy plants. a snail climbing a stem, and a moth up near the cat’s ear are in the foreground.
