colour on canvas

I love that an­oth­er de­f­i­n­i­tion of “draw­ing” is “a pulling force,” mean­ing to bring out, like you might draw wa­ter from a well.

Draw­ing is most def­i­nite­ly a dig­ging, seek­ing, sourc­ing process of re­veal­ing, not just for me, but also for the women who com­mis­sion por­traits of them­selves and of­ten re­port that the process I take them through is therapeutic.

 

 

3‑colour study – cad or­ange, Payne’s grey, and a touch of that icy blue.

Now that I think about it, palette prob in­flu­enced by my stay up here in the Bay Area dur­ing fires and the 24-hour episode of strange dark­ness and deep or­ange ash fog skies.
