DRAWING NATURE: Cape Cod
I had a different response to wind than I did in Florida. Here, the wind seems to pull the branches away from one another and then the next minute, it pulls everything together in-mass reminiscent of the "push-pull" phenomena in abstract expressionism. There is also the wonderful patterning of the air and its engagement with the solidity of the branches. The first four images were sold in the solo exhibition at High Field Hall in Falmouth. Following that exhibition, the nature drawings experimented with asphaltum and graphite on vellum as well as the more introspective view of nature in a more vulnerable state.
