What's inside?

Flo. Stillness and motion.

This is older work. I came across this one just now whilst searching for something else the way that happens. There are a few basic themes and shapes that reappear in my work at various times (portraits, the human figure, geometric shapes, the dogs, movement/speed) and the way I hop from one theme to the other, one medium to the other, and back again apparently at random is reflected in the order and irregularity in which work appears on the blog. I just post images that I find interesting, either new work or older work I have rediscovered, and hope the few people who visit this blog enjoy it. It`s funny how just posting a drawing or painting on my blog creates a distance and it is almost as if I am looking at someone else`s work. It`s very similar to framing something and seeing it change. As if it is somehow more finished and ready to be put out there and let go as strange as that may sound.

In my last post I wrote I was going back to charcoal drawings for a while and here are a few portraits. These were done in a single session. I made a whole pile and put most of them aside, but these ones interest me, at least for now. I may look at them again later and and wonder `what was I thinking?`
