A day in riverside

Rolling Wave, 2013

This wave was drawn for my awesome uncle Kevin who lives on a boat.

Long, long, long

Amidst wave (and plant) drawings, I started a new series inspired by dreamy songs. Totally subjective interpretations based on visualizing the sounds. I was taking a walk a few weeks ago listening to music on random and this song came on...

Aah the organ, the quiet opening. Listening to it I imagined someone laying on a hill in the sun, under a blue sky or slowly falling backwards into water. Flowers falling everywhere. So I took a self-portrait and drew this first iteration...

The next drawing will probably be inspired by the amazing Andrew Bird...

Since graduating art school I have been making little drawings each day on sheets of paper that mostly fit in the palm of my hand. 

Waves and more waves. They are one of the few forms that when captured in a photograph and translated into a drawing, can become both abstract and representational. Immense, delicate, always changing. Somewhere waves are crashing, and if I can't be near them then I will draw them.
