I've been drawing a lot lately. I needed to disconnect from the local news and recover my internal space of peace and magic. Let my imagination soar and visit different places. This inner freedom is my life saver. I can't function without it, and it brings order to the chaos around me. I am grateful for the ability my mind has to see images that I later fix on paper and explore further.
What I draw almost always comes from a three dimensional image I hold in my mind, and it is not a live object –but rather– a piece of jewelry that would be too complex to make with the metalsmith techniques that I use. Sometimes my well of ideas fills up so much, that I need to capture images with greater ease, and drawing lets me do this.
I made this series using silver and gold pen on black cardboard. Most drawings measure approximately 8 by 11 inches (21 cm x 28 cm).
