Something Different

"Make a mark, do something to it, do something else to it."
--Jasper Johns

Or something along those lines. As mentioned in previous posts, I have been wrestling with a couple of different approaches, trying to work through keeping drawing from stagnating. After the last multi-panel drawing, I stepped back and decided to give figure drawing a break for awhile. I want to concentrate on the act of drawing itself, without being encumbered with a subject. Frequently I find myself concentrating on getting the figure/subject just right, rather than enjoying drawing.

The right panel of two, built of one stroke of color after another, just letting the drawing evolve on the page.
