Creating is…
I’m getting back into sketching everyday as a primary goal. I draw with my son everyday and it has me getting back to basics.
My studies of the Surrealist painters in the 1930s reveals the importance of their studies in the classical world. As a firm ground of grasping at their dreams, they were also studying what the masters before them left for us to see.
The concept of ruins… these played a huge part in my visual style for years. Ruins echo the former civilization as much as they represent what we have created, they also represent the impermanence of being.
What kind of symbols do you feel called to explore in your own work? What is the role which life drawing plays in your artistic practice? Do you incorporate studying old masters in your process?
I hope that this group gets somewhere someday, I am really interested to know what other artists draw upon for inspiration?
