Undulating Biotic 4 1/4 " x 6 5/8"Ink on Paper2006Sold

This is an intricately detailed ink drawing done on an antique book page. The page is from a chapter titled "Colloids" from a book called The Structure and Properties of Matter, published in 1928. The book page is slightly yellowed - I'm not sure how well that shows in this scan. The abstract forms of this drawing are elegant and flowing, referencing chimerical organic forms. I like the way the forms cover the words on the page, creating a tension between linear thinking and fanciful forms.
