Title: Line Artwork Dimensions: 12"x12" Media: Ballpoint pens
Artist statement; For this piece I was inspired by portraits like those of Nester Formentera, which use contour interval lines. This piece consists of a young woman drawn using red pens with a very somber/ low key face and vibe swarmed with horizontal black lines. For this piece I tried to convey form, depth, and shape buy using different curved lines which vary in distance from each other, I like the overall piece now, but if I could go back and make a change I would try not to smear the pen, I would work harder on making neater lines. But I do think this piece came together well.
