“Jar - Riva Lehrer”, 2022, graphite and ink on a 28.5” x 40” Schoellerhammer drawing board.
A drawing of my dear friend (artist, author and activist) Riva Lehrer . Read her marvelous book Golem Girl.
Perhaps of interest: One well known art historical precedent including a bell jar is Joseph Wright of Derby's painting "An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump"

I did another thing! Really fast sketchy. I actually did this because I wanted to color it, and then...didn't color it. :|
... I hope he at least remembered shoes.
This took me forever to do lol.
Not total time...but I worked on it a tiny bit here and there with spans of time doing nothing at all.

"The Perspective - Greg Metzler", graphite and ink on drawing board,
16.25" x 19.5"
This photograph is of me holding*** my recently finished drawing "The Perspective (Greg Metzler)".
Greg Metzler is a friend who is a marvelous photographer: mainly of nature, but other subjects as far a field as roller derby. He is a long time cancer survivor and a proven friend in time of need. For me the image is reminiscent of the nature/park settings of paintings by Watteau, such as one also titled The Perspective. The title of the my drawing nods to that painting by Watteau, although it goes in quite a different directions here.
*** I'm posting this image of me holding the drawing to help give a sense of it's scale.

"The Bell (John August Swanson)", graphite on drawing board, 12" x 7.5"
I don't know if this finished, but I like it in its current state.
I had drawn John Swanson previously, but a rather compelling photograph of him that I had taken a year or two before he died convinced me to do another drawing.
I first met John in the 1980s and at that initial meeting I recall him telling me the marvelous story of the bell maker’s son in Tarkovsky's film "Andrei Rublev". In that story people come to the bell maker's home to conscript him to make a new bell for the town. The bell maker's son informs them that his father has died, but, he says, he knows the secret of making a bell. So he goes with them and the next section of the film shows the making of this giant bell. When the bell is ultimately successfully rung the boy inexplicably leaves in despair. Andrei Rublev has been observing all this transpire and when he finds the boy (the scene of which is obliquely referenced in the artwork hanging on the wall in the back of this drawing) Rublev breaks his vow of silence and asks the boy why he is despairing. The boy confesses that there was no secret that his father had shared with him: he (the boy) had made the whole thing up. Rublev responds by inviting the boy to come with him and the boy will make bells and he (Rublev) will resume making icons.
My recollection of the story is probably not altogether accurate, but what was compelling to me (as it was to John) was the way the story affirmed this crazy leap into the make-it-up-as-you-go life of being an artist.
