Almost Still Life, Again




Almost Still Life, Revisited

Caught in a still life again,
wondering about life
on the other side
of the glass.

“ES” was back in the same pose yesterday as she was last Friday afternoon. So I sketched her again from another vantage point in the studio. I was left with half the page to fill with something. I decided to create a source for the light.
14”x 17” ink and watercolor on Bristol



Fountain Pen: Platinum Carbon fine point

  1. Wonderful!😊😊
    She looks as amazing as she did before...and your creation for the source of the light is wonderfully innovative. You have me wondering now, too, about the life on the other side of the glass...😉

    Have a great day!

    1. I was wondering too what to sketch outside the window. What part of life might she be missing?
      Thank you

  2. I have been there too often, not to recognize both the desire and the impossibility of it. You amaze me, always have, always will
