Broken Hearted Print

I love flowers especially big curvaceous Magnolia flowers, their shape and the wonderful way their petals command us to stare and admire their momentary heart-aching beauty; hence the title : Broken Hearted. I believe my interest in drawing people and realising a flower has the same structure of the human body was born from my school days in the art room where we drew the one flower, usually a rose, lasting a full afternoon. This Broken Hearted painting was made in the gardens of Dartington Hall (S.W. England). That particular day I had to work fast as the rain was never far away and you can see the quick strokes and frequent rain diluting the Indian ink , often giving a hurried and washed-out drawing line. When I got indoors I built on this by drawing some more lines, adding coloured tissue-paper and collaged pieces from my own works. You will notice that this work is in three sections because I cut the original work into sections but later decided it looked better as one piece. I challenge myself to try new ways but this does not always work and then I must be honest with myself, admit my mistakes and begin again.
