drawing nr660

about drawing nr660 and then some

I am sitting at my drawing table with the computer. It is not even 6. Yesterday morning I was perfectly comfortable with the notion of breaking free of the drawing practice. So I made some sounds with the elektron. The idea is to take a step towards society and work more broadly with the ideas that have emerged. Also I am happier when I move about more. Well this morning the urge is to make another drawing. I suppose it is a result of habit. The morning ritual. In drawing nr660 as with the last drawings there are 36 layers. I am not making a full 48 layer orbit on my drawing board leaving a sense of opening to the drawings. Nr660 has a certain roughness that I appreciate. I want a thinner line though but am to lazy to sharpen the nib. The idea was to explore the tricolours. Maybe I will. Being creative as opposed to disciplined is a harder feat. The paradox of my imperative in the drawings, to look into the void, is not fulfilled in my work. I just repeat myself looking for anomalies and slight of hand. But so does the world. Then there is the accumulation of stuff. Trying to make it compact so as to not be impractical.
