Perspective

YK 2019.

Life drawing

Life drawing at ARCSOC. It was hard for me to render my own perspective as I was busy trying to capture the individuality of the model and the pose. I often feel similar trade-off between the artist’s style and the uniqueness of the object. (Compare, for example, Picasso’s early, realistic paintings vs. his late cubist paintings.) I wish I could find a way to capture both. Do you feel such tension when you draw? If so, how do you deal with it?

Leap

I’m experimenting using forms as simple as possible. Then I’ll think more about the conceptual side – what I’m drawing, and whether there is a new message worth conveying.

Satyr

YK 2019.

Sketched at Drink & Draw at The Museum of Classical Archaeology; coloured afterwards.

According to the caption:

it used to be believed that this … satyr [is] tapping a foot clapper … to encourage a nymph … to join him dancing. This theory is now doubted. … A wide range of dates have been given by different scholars … perhaps shorty before 100 BCE is the most likely.

Perfect Day for Gloves / 장갑 필요한 날

(Pencil & pastel on paper & digital, 2017)

I went out to get my daughter a pair of gloves. I knew there was a cart in front of Whole Foods.

“A perfect day for gloves.”

“It is.”

I handed him seven dollars. He handed me the gloves. With his hands bare.

딸아이 장갑을 사주러 나섰다. 홀푸즈 수퍼마켓 앞에 수레가 있는 걸 봐 두었었다.

“장갑 하나 꼭 필요한 날이죠.”

“그러게요.”

아저씨께 7불을 건네드렸다. 아저씨가 장갑을 건네주셨다. 맨손으로.
