Untitled (charcoal, India ink & gesso on paper, 2006)
This is a figure study of a model from Spring ‘06. I built up a quick base sketch in charcoal and then loosely brushed out the highlights with India ink and white gesso. Like many of my pieces, the face is left unfinished.
This piece was partially influenced by the work of Francis Bacon, whose disturbing images often appeared in a blurred state of motion.
