Movement

Found this wonderful artist Jaanika Peerna (Estonian who now lives in NY) who works on Mylar – a plasic PET film. Love the shadows produced with cut mylar and spot lights.

Wall installation, push pins, mylar, lights

SO……….. I hunted down some mylar (from the wonderful Neil’s Art Store in Brunswick) and drew on it with wax pencil trying to show movement…….

I can see a bird in this one

Then some Beach wind on ordinary cartridge paper

This sketch was meant to be Russ Wilkinson but he’s hard to recognize here.

Then did one with no figure, only the background. I liked the shape of the ‘no figure’ but it made me think of Toad in ‘Wind in the Willows’ so I coloured it in Photoshop.
