Drawing III - Walk the Line

This project involves me going to local art stores and walking the aisles (walking the line) and wanting to buy everything in sight (crossing the line).  This is some of the raw footage, edits available soon.

Drawing III - Challenge Transparency

This project incorporates transparency as a medium as well as a visual technique.

The transparency of the water shows the Koi fish underneath the surface.

The foundation underneath our monetary economy is the country working

It is wondered if the Mona Lisa is actually Leonardo himself.  I represented it here as an underdrawing

Underneath the picture is the photographer that composed them

Underneath digital arts is the core of the computer that creates it

The drawings of Pablo Picasso have their fundamental materials beneath.

The materials for the making of Origami

What lies beneath the statue?  The raw rock and the tools that go into its making.

Drawing III - Challenge Sewing

This assignment was a challenge in creating less obvious ways of illustrating sewing.  I built upon the idea of sewing as 'stitching' and let that word express itself in line.

 Illustrations include medical stitches, the sewn Threads of Reality, a stitched doll of (Lilo and) Stitch, A Stitch In Time, a sniper 'stitching' his target, the stitched lattice supported of a bridge, and the stitching of a woven Indian blanket.

Drawing III - Challenge Wood

This assignment brought to mind using wood as a canvas, mark making being made by a wood burner.  I sought to make images that were not only made on wood, but that also related to wood and nature.  If Nature could draw, what marks would it make?

Drawing III - Challenge Scratching

The visual that immediately came to mind with this assignment was scratchboard.  I have a kit with various tools for scratchboarding that I haven't used before, so I used this assignment to explore further the variety of marks that could be created in this media.

Drawing III - Challenge Gravity

This project involved exploring how gravity can effect the made or making of marks, employing charcoal and water.  Although the results were less than hoped for, the experience led to ideas for new possible experiments.
