Dragonfly Dreams

when i was younger I did a lot of Pencil sketching, sort of dreamy abstract landscapes. I think I might still have one around.. maybe I can dig it up and scan it. A bit later I started doing the same thing in black on white.. also adding figures sometimes. I really enjoy working with black and white. As for the white on black, specifically, I have been drawn back to it lately.. I think for the dreamy fog-bound quality. It just expresses something for me at the moment. And there is a certain subtlety there in the starkness.

Dragonfly Dreams is on etsy.



Here is another one from a couple of years ago (this one also has some gouache)
