Taking a break from the intensive complexity of my sewn and painted works I began work on this charcoal drawing. I love the feel of charcoal on wet canvas, the physical scale of the large canvas, and the mental challenge of creating a drawing.
Rereading my journal this evening I came across this entry:
Watching "The Realms of the Unreal" made me think about the type of engagement Henry Darger had with his work. Because he never showed it to anyone it existed for him and he gave his interest free reign. He was creator and audience.
