Mixed Media on wood, ready to hang.

Signed on the back.

I wanted to explore using ink and drawing materials on wood and am excited by the results! I have allowed the grains of wood to be highlighted in some places by ink washes, and have left some ink flowing over the body highlighting the creative process and giving expression. The charcoal and pastel combine with the ink to create a vibrant yet subdued piece. The interior in this piece is imagined and is dreamlike, as though the atmospheric internal world of the sitter.
