"panic attack whilst treading water"



"panic attack whilst treading water"
19 1/2" x 25 1/2"

a return to figurative work after a month and a half. working on combining new ideas with old ones. it was a long project, but the snow days helped me hammer it out quicker than i thought. this is the first in probably at least a 4-drawing series. the holiday break will interrupt the drawing schedule, but i'll probably have a few more by mid-winter. it should keep me busy for a while, and that's a good thing.

"it's not always like this"

"it's not always like this"
28" x 66"

the second big gold drawing, a companion piece to "the transition is hard to deal with." it acts as a depiction of the aftermath of all the action from the previous piece. the wreckage floats around as the curtain begins to lower on the scene. not quite as intense or packed with imagery, it's a quieter, reflective work.
