Recyclation, date unknown

Searching through photos on USB and in Picassa looking for date/ number for this. Couldn’t find it. Probably sometime in 2013, so between 81 and 295. So many misses missing: destroyed in moves, trashed, lost.
24 x 26.7cm. Not one the stronger assemblages. Came close to trashing it everytime I moved. But seeing it again, seemed interesting. Insulation or packing material, bottle caps, broken glass, street dirt. House paint, a leaf, ink, watercolor. Another face in the debris and waste of capitalism.

26 x 18cm Human Face. Pen & Ink, watercolor. Another advantage of pen and ink–nibs and India ink: I spent $8.00 the other day on two Derwent Graphik fine liners. With the kind of work I’ve been doing, they’ll be good for maybe 5 or six pieces. A bottle of ink and a 102 nib, if I keep it clean, will last for months, working every day. And the lines are more dynamic and less mechanical.

#658

35.5 x 43cm Pen & ink, watercolor. (black & white W.I.P. below)
All about the tension between almost random lines and splatters, and a kind of geometric containment, with light and color resisting. Anarchy struggling with the State. Can abstraction be allegory?
