line drawings

Some drawings stay 'flat,' intentionally or unintentionally -- they explore figure-ground relationships or have dominant arrangements of lines or planes.

Other drawings immediately suggest three-dimensional space and volumetric objects, often with more sense of layering and protrusion toward the viewer or receding depth.

Color adds additional vibrancy yet sometimes remains subservient to the sense of a drawing in contrast to works on paper with larger fields of color.
