Lange&Eckert Fine Art
I'm a mixed media visual artist with a passion for drawing the figure. The complexities of the human form pose a special problem for the artist who doesn't rely on formulas for drawing the figure. There are no quick and easy methods for drawing, no "drawing for dummies" approach that can lead to a real understanding the the human form. There are no shortcuts.
I have no interest in making my work look like a photograph. Photos speak their own language. I would rather my work looks raw, made by hand and without a slick gloss.
A young woman confronts a lovely wedding dress and contemplates her future with her soon to be spouse. The drawing on the wall behind her, is an Edgar Degas work that depicts (I believe), the drudgery of domestic life - a woman ironing a piece of clothing while staring off into the distance. This is a simple pastel drawing on artist grade sandpaper.
