Hands Landscapes pen and ink drawings 4 x 6 inches on hot press board, 2022
A famous NYC gallerist told me that my drawing are too brown, I like brown, it's the color of old times when Leonardo and the likes made real art, that now is priceless and held up 500 years. Now that I got a lot out of my system - I am back to brown.
I have never met a person that doesn’t like my drawings, it’s impossible to show what they are really like on the screen. because they are three dimensional on microscopic level. The micro and macro work together.
A very old drawing of mine, I used this "building block" to make this drawing

My drawings are made to last 500 years, always with pigment inks on rag paper using dip pen and ink. The dip pen and ink makes incredible surface that can’t be replicated by simple micron pens and the like. It’s not a marker and leaves grooves in the paper and the drawings are like etchings, one of a kind etchings. this is why I was never interested in making prints as the reproduction is so much more inferior to the original - I quickly lose interest. This is why i do not have any faith in Instagram or YouTube and other digital distribution channels, they will long be gone and forgotten but my drawings will remain. If you're lucky to get one of my drawings while I'm still around good, once I'm dead they're going to be very pricey cuz they're going to be rare.
