​                     Relationships: The Mystery

              (graphite wash/acrylic/ink 20" x 24")

Relationships are a vital part of our daily life.  They vary from

time to time, and from place to place, throughout the many

stages of our lives.  Some are very meaningful, and leave

"footprints in our heart."  Others simply wave on through.

All of them leave a mark on us.

The contour line, which overlaps in some areas, and flows

freely as a single line in others, can create the look of the

complex.  It was used here to illustrate the many turns in

life that shape most relationships.

Both figures in this image were drawn from a live model, who

was wearing a jacket that had a very rhythmic pattern.  Later, the rest of the clothing, as well as the shoes, were painted in, to create the look for both figures that was similar

and yet different for each.
