Landscapes!

"Wandering" series, 3

"Wandering" series, 3

Here is a series of charcoal landscapes I did of the Irish countryside and a literary figure that represents “the wanderer.” He appears in each of his settings to not be aware of his surroundings, as someone lost in thought. It was suggested to me that these have an illustrated quality. They were meant as a narrative, in the end, but I suppose my ultimate intention was for each to be able to stand on its own as an individual piece. Anyway…

Each of these was meant to evoke a particular mood; some to present a sense of foreboding or melancholy and others to elicit a sense of awe for the space, in contrasts of very dark and very light.

I am still learning.
