Untitled #126


Untitled #126
24" X 36"
Charcoal on Paper
2013

This 40 min. pose was drawn at Location 1980 in Orange County a few years ago. Working big like this can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, but it really gets the blood running as you have to use your whole arm to cover the ground of the paper. You really have to let go. 

For me at least - this helps me get into the "zone" as it seems to shut down the Prefrontal Cortex part of the brain that can be so stifling when working. When this part of the brain goes silent there is no future, there is no past, there is only the moment in front of you and it can be an amazing mental state to work in. Time ceases to exist.
