Today I continued with the drawing which was posted last Thursday April 8. Different lines can be drawn on the paper through the diagonals. Horizontal and vertical dividing lines are drawn on the crossings of diagonals. By going on a dense pattern of horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines will be created, which is like a mist, the subject or object can appear through this web of lines. The sculpture is in the stone, free it from the prison of the monolith, the drawing is on the paper, make it visible by accentuating or erasing in the web of lines.
While drawing it was wonderful to recognize the possibility to draw a "river down below" after a painting of Jan Andriesse.
Left premature drawing is more or less after a drawing of Karel Martens. The drawing on the right is after the painting "the river down below" of Jan Andriesse.
Probably it is possible to continue with the surface research project by scratching and drawing over it again as done in the palimpsest drawings. The palimpsest here is not a layered text drawing but is working with patterns and directions.
Questions are rising, how strict a method has to be followed? To draw after a system, how far to continue and when do you liberate yourself? Anything goes? Repeatedly going back to the basic question.
