Draw/Keep Drawing, 1983


Pencil, 5.25" x 5" on 10" x 8" tablet paper. Maxon encourages himself to make these two drawing on the same sheet; So What: nude talks blasé, but looks strained. The Kiss: compact block forms an abstract, loveless embrace. Both images create and release a subtle tension. Light pencil ghosting on left side of The Kiss, else clean.
