ABSTRACT DRAWINGS

With my strong interest in architecture and my ongoing inquiry into our urban environment it seemed only natural to continue to work in my drawings with the same subject matter my paintings explore. A colored background in ink, which is much like working with watercolor, provides the foil upon which the drawing can take shape. The background is considered carefully before the first line is added. Here I select colors and composition intuitively. The minimal abstract shapes layered over the background merely suggest an atmosphere of an urban environment. It is up to the viewer to draw her own conclusions.
