Drawing Essays > Grimey's Basement

Grimey’s Basement, Feb 2018
When I saw the For Sale sign outside of Grimey’s record store this Fall I knew I’d be drawing at the Basement asap. The Basement holds a dear spot in my heart. I’m always stunned by what I see there: people are putting their necks out every night to declare themselves and offer their voice to the world. So this one was to be a birthday present to myself… I told myself I wouldn’t even care if the work looked like crap from working in the dark. There were challenges - materials, method, movement, and being too excited to sleep - and there were epiphanies - the light & color and joy of drawing at the speed of the drums.
These have been drawn in Feb 2018. The first week all digital on iPad, then after with paint pen on paper and illustration board and t-shirt.
