Drawing and Painting
ART - - - a t - s p e e d - - -
This "Stuff" is my artwork. I dabble a bit in drawing and painting, mostly drawing (because the supplies cost less.)
I've sold a few of my pen/ink drawings over the years. If you like what you see and think you might like to commission me to do one of your own, drop me an e-mail.
TECHNIQUE
I developed this drawing technique with the hope that I could communicate two very important elements.
- I wanted to show the Effort of Speed
- I'd define the Effort of Speed
as:
- That which makes a person driving a race-car more than just a race-car-driver, they are a RACER.
- The dedication to the risk.
- The dedication to the corner.
- Not the point where the driver has perhaps tried "too hard" but where they have tried just hard enough to make the most of the moment.
- I'd define the Effort of Speed
as:
- AND -
- I wanted to get a dual viewing effect where:
- At a moderate distance you might believe you are viewing a black and white photograph,
- And when you get closer you see that it is made up of thousands of individual pen strokes, each painstakingly rendered with precise weight, thickness, direction, and love. (Yes folks, I said "love." I care for each and every pen stroke in a way that is difficult to describe.)
