Figure in the Grass

I take my pencils and a sketchbook when I sit the Northwind Arts Center galleries once a month. Occasionally the exhibit inspires me directly, at other times work on display flavors my latest drawings as I draw at their (rather fabulous) desk. On Friday I started with the idea of working larger with my Grasses series. However I will probably need to take that into a new media: I can’t scale up the way I use pencils… and still have fun! Then my theme of wrapping and bandages entered my sketch. We’ll see if this works into a finished image at some point; I think it will appear again.

In fact I am doing some digital work with this scan, adjusting the the figure visibility a bit, while still keeping it lost in the grass…
