All drawings of life are done with a black background, all of death, are on a white background. These  drawings are all of death, and though this dog is fairly decomposed and may be a gruesome subject, I hope for a certain amount of beauty and serenity to come through.

This is the same deer that was depicted in porcelain. The composition is similar to all of the other drawings. He lays in the bottom, left corner of a large (30"x22") piece of white paper.






The bird, with a bit of graphite added.

I have been trying to upload this for months. The hands are studio-mates Dan and Drew. Their hands and their talking make the performance even more poetic for me.
