Making Original Pencil Drawing ( 2014 Nov 17th)
“Jason and Dave” is a silk painting inspired by my son, Jason. On guitar, and his friend, Dave Forbes, on standup bass, playing at the bar in Gainesville, Florida. Using the musicians as models, I discovered a mirror in the room and created a reflection that included a portrait of a lady.
The piece is made of painted dye on habotai silk using the serti method. Lines are made using gutta so that the stains will not penetrate. Then, pigments are laid, filling in the spaces. The result is a transparent fluid effect with delicate gradations. 24” x 36” Silk Pinting
