This week, I'm
trying to go back to doodling using pens and pencils instead of thread, and it hasn't been the easiest thing... This textile design by Henry Moore is a good reminder of how
fun and
playful it should be..

Caterpillar and Insect Wings, 1947 - Serigraphy in 3 colors on rayon, 330 x 650mm
|
These other two might be less playful yet they are very lose which I envy:
|
Four Heads, Half Figures and Animal, c. 1946 - Serigraphy in 7 colors on rayon 320 x 720mm |
|
Figures and Symbols, Page from a Design Notebook, 1943 - 203 x 165mm

book.
I have such a hard time using pen and paper these days too. Hope you have some images to share soon of yours. I keep thinking I should do a doodle series ...
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should think of a joint project...? It's been a bit of a struggle, rather intimidating actually - I didn't realize it had been a while since I drew anything..:)
ReplyDeleteSo inspiring! XO
