So Many Themes, So Few to Make
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 07-08-20’ is a return to the nude theme. It was time to do another in my Roundism series after a couple of commissions such as ‘Friends- 29-07-20’. Many themes to draw but so little time to do them all. One could choose cats and dogs, people, still lifes, landscapes and what have you not. Bestowed upon me the heavy burden to do nudes and why not? Being a bachelor I have more than time to pick the nude of my fancy and draw her. Perhaps I see more nudity as a bachelor than many a married friend.
A Giant Zigzag
There are many positions a model can show. Then, one day I saw the reference picture for this one. Particularly the slanted position of the legs I licked very much. A great opportunity to show heavy tonal rhythmic cadences whereas the body is folded into a giant zig-zag. The body position almost looks like some kind of knitted pattern. You know these elaborate celtic knots, right? Often I try to unravel them with my eyes. Who could unfold the mysteries of a woman?
Simply and Essential
I kept the abstraction quite simple without any nifty deformations. In this respect I didn’t do a front-to-end fill-out of the paper. This way the heavy tonal violence could breathe a bit. Besides that, leaving blank the lower left corner and the upper right one echoes the diagonals in the body stucture. To me it is the rhythym of light and dark plains that show repetition in variation and variation in repetition. Maybe this is the main ruling principle on this planet Earth and in the Universe.
