ABSOLUTE AUTOMATIC DRAWINGS
These three works stand as fine examples of how far Automatic Drawings could reach. Unlike the works by the Surrealist predecessors, these are finished presentation of the discipline.
The lines do not twirl mindlessly on a surface, but possess calligraphic qualities that are both eloquent and determined. The fight for contrast and balance is significant as a visual aspect. The appearing and disappearing of lines act as an integral element that tie the composition together, which is an age old Chinese art concept.
This collection is not to overlooked as a mere study.

The aftermath of a significant discovery usually follows with a long and silent phase. This time, not so as a change in direction was already in the making. Downsizing to an 9” x 11” presentation as I started with canvas paper.
It was a smooth transition towards the more realistic realm - finding figure images entrapped between lines.
I was not happy with the cold, inhuman touch of abstraction.
Thus prepared me an era of melancholy as my mother passed way.
