Finding the Edges


This drawing was a joy to complete, with each area coming together effortlessly. The inspiration for the palette came from the color of the water surrounding Hawaii, and in particular, Kailua Beach. I am pleased with how I found the edges of each shape, in hindsight perhaps too much so.

It was recently mentioned that I appear to be going somewhere with this series, but have not completely arrived. I sense this as well: what I am striving for is how those edges blend into and emerge from the overall color field, creating a constant, vibrating rhythm.
