About this artwork
The drawings are made by hand on large sheets of Stonehenge paper, via a method that's very labor intensive: each takes… about 3 months to complete, the result of building up multiple layers of colors, and using up dozens of Prismacolor pencils, to achieve intensity and rich tonality. Bold colors are used for their power to evoke sensations, and elicit an emotional response from the viewer.
*NOTE: paper has two deckle edges on the long dimension
