Messy and snug

Life is, and, gets messy – well mine did.
On the page I pulled colour in while my line let the junk and chaos out. Painting after painting, page after page.
In these times I focus on eyes for the same reasons we all do – searching, seeing, looking for our environment and each other. My pen gathers and stretches the eyes as it dances around always trying to draw the emotion and the viewers in.
This piece, this character, this person i have seen from afar, began its life standing up on its left axis. However, sometimes the drawing was never meant to go the way you start, so it found its way here laying amongst/ buried within the colour and the curl of line on its side.

Their life began looking and stretching upward and then decided to turn sideways and have little lie down and have a rest.
