Multiples Are Many
27.5 x 20 inches

The last few months I’ve been doing a lot of drawing, and it’s felt like a return to my one true love. Pencil, charcoal, pastels: the directness of material-on-paper, the erasing and reworking, the paper itself. Drawing is luscious.

Multiples Are Many started with a dream, and became a meditation on varieties of life-force. It is one of those images where I stepped back at the end and said to myself: “Huh. So that’s what I have to say about that.”
