Inside The Mind of The Artist

Introspection of the emotional process of creating art and being an artist.

With this series I will explore the emotions I normally keep locked away. Not only is this somewhat of a cleansing process, it is largely an introspection into the fighting sides of surface-reality art, and the darkest periods of which an artist can find themselves. Expressing the turmoil of creating what is wanted and that which is neccessary.

I received my Bachelor of Art from Mount Union College in 2002 and since then I have had approximately three shows a year. I always draw new for each exhibit for many different reasons, mostly to move my artwork to the next level. Primarily I draw with soft pastels, charcoal and conte dealing with natural subject matter.

With this series I focused on quick directional strokes to make these pieces as colorful and expressive as possible. When drawing these animals the main focal points were always the eyes and the beak, to keep them from overpowering the piece, the fast strokes were used to represent the rest of the body directing the viewer away from the focal points to allow the viewer to visualize the drawing as a whole.
