weekly drawing and artist

These are photographs from Jill Greenberg's latest series of photographs called "glass ceiling". I really enjoy her use of color and just have found them to be generally beautiful and inspiring. The drawing is from my sketchbook, where the yellow latex on one paged rubbed against the green and blue pastel quick sketch I did on the previous page, rubbing together. the other marks on the yellow come from the next page when I was writing. I thought the effects they had on each other could be considered in the future as an intentional piece.

Weekly drawing and artist

Included in this post are a larger web drawing (top) that I have done on thinner paper, using some points and lines that were drawn outside of the page to help construct the overall form. The artist included is Bridget Riley, and her work "Echo" (bottom).

Thomas Allen

I thought this went well with my drawing. It's kind of sculpture, kind of crafts, and kind of photography. I like how it combines the idea of a "minimalist art object" with the pulpy, campy excess of Old West gunslinger novels.

"Allens photographs are inspired by his childhood experiences with pop-up books and View-Masters. He begins his process by cutting figures and images out of illustrated pages of old books and vintage fiction novels. Allen then cleverly rearranges and juxtaposes the forms to create three-dimensional scenes. Next, he carefully lights his subjects and photographs the scenes. - Joseph Bellows Gallery"
