Carianne's Drawing from 3/19/08

pool
watercolor and graphite on paper 18 1/8 x 24"

Mindy's last drawing had a feeling of either a coming together or a disintegration, depending on what you focused on. This image came from a photo I took this afternoon in the rain of a puddle in my driveway reflecting a tree in my neighbors yard. I think it also feels like an image arranging itself into recognition, or just being scattered. I loved how this solid tree was so delicate in its reflection...any little rain drop shook it into a blur. The grid was purely functional as I enlarged the drawing from a small photo... though, I thought it created that poignant concept of organic vs. geometric that has been sprinkling through our recent conversations.
