Mr. G's Sustained Investigation Fall 2021

 Part I of Mr. G's Sustained Investigation, Fall 2021.

An exploration of fears based on time, dreams, combined with personal experiences, represented by both literal and metaphorical imagery, and how they impact the human figure. Media includes, drawing, acrylic paint, pen and ink, photography and collage. In this first series the idea is to create a series of works of varying sizes, with the idea that new media (photography, drawing, painting, collage) will be added to each smaller 18cm X 40cm section (page of book) within the larger works.
