DescriptionA study in blue indigo, the work consists of tiny diagonal marks, which form a grid pattern. The grid is tight and the work resembles a weaving. The weight of the pencil pressing forms a random pattern; some lines are light. some darker. Subtle and meticulous, the effect is compelling.On View
