Contemporary Drawing: Transformation Drawing





(When viewed from a certain angle ^ all black shadow shapes disappear behind horizon edges)



Coupled Beings

Dimensions: Approx. 4" x 4" & 4" x 6.6"
Materials: Black Plasti Dip, Gouche, soft pastels, tape

The transformation drawing (starting from the green drawing at the top to the final piece of duality at the bottom) ended in a piece focused on duality, between warm and cool colors as well as the reversed painting of the circular shape of one to the other as well as a personal understanding of my process. Compressed in a book press to get the final shape, all previous marks and materials are still within the inside of the folded pieces. I chose to focus on duality because of the process of this project. Being someone who pays a lot of attention to detail and seems to be fairly picky over smears and smudges, through the process of this project i was able to experiment and understand more of a loose/no expectation side of creating that has allowed me to express myself more clearly.
