Simplifying.

Here I was aiming to simplify the form to an even more extreme level.

 

I painted in a very simplistic, almost abstract way, human forms onto absorbent paper. I then used whatever ink leaked through to the other side to create violent, contorted images. I again juxtaposed this with text, and deep hues, and kept the blue and crimson theme running through.

 

Each of these works are A3, and are done in India ink (some diluted), oil pastel, compressed charcoal, on Buff paper, and canvas.
