Description

Pencil on cartridge paper sketchpad 30th September/1st October 2005 An attempt to redirect conscious intent as much as possible and work as spontaneously as possible, almost without thinking. Obviously I found it difficult to keep this up all the time and it became more of a conscious exercise as I worked downwards, but I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I didn't scan it, just took a photo, but although the quality's lost a little I do like the vignetting. Thank you as always for taking a look and for your valued feedback :-)

Conscious or not, it is powerful. To me, even at the first sight, it looks like a bird bending down to feed its young. This is captivating stuff!

Thank you :-) Tomorrow I'll upload another doodle also from 30th September - similar way of working but very different.

I think this must look much better at a bigger size cos it's impossible to see all the 'lil details here!! A shame really as it's a very intricate drawing! I love the design and the fluidity of the all thing!!

Being deprived (?) of Photoshop seems to be having a very positive effect on your creativity, Jim :-) I too like the vignetting, almost like airbrushed!

It kind of looks like a snake skin that was just recently shed and lightning.

Nice spontaneous work ... does look a bit like a representation of a neuron enlivened by small beasts. Excellent!

Always enjoy your spontaneous drawings in a purely abstract sense Jim & this is no exception, love the detail in this one & the overall flow, nice one! ; )
