Junior High School Series: New Drawings

I've just completed four new ink transfer portrait drawings for the series Junior High School. I continue to go through my old junior high school yearbook to find unusual or incomparable-looking classmates to base drawings on.

Two Drawing in an Art Book

I just received the art book that I have two drawings in called Strokes of Genius 9, an annual survey of drawings. The two drawings are: The Lovely Jungian Analyst, an orange scribble portrait of my wife Laurel; and Mysterious Italian with Matches, a portrait of a young man drawn on black museum board.

David and Johnny

I initially wanted to do a scribble portrait of David Byrne (Talking Heads). After seeing a documentary of the punk guitarist Johnny Thunders (New York Dolls, The Heartbreakers), I re-imagined the piece using portraits of these two important musician/songwriters of the late 70s early 80s New York music scene. Two distinct personalities. Two musical genres (American punk and new wave). I like the color combination as well.
