Sketches: Line and Colour

Charley Peters, Sketches (2012), Digital Drawing

Examples of recent works in progress which develop earlier ink drawings into layered, coloured compositions. The original drawings from which the colour images are derived are shown below, the black ink lines forming a compositional structure on which additional areas of colour and different weights of lines are placed. These studio explorations remain in development and subsequent works in the series will be posted on Carbon Particles in the near future.

These images are examples of current studio explorations into generative drawing practices. Series of repeated four-sided forms are drawn intuitively over one another, the drawings in part create themselves through the processes employed.

The drawings below are created on Fabriano Pergamenata semi-transparent parchment paper, allowing lines from drawings placed underneath to be seen through the top sheet(s).

These small sketchbook drawings continue the development of the Psychoparadoxa series started in late 2011. In these drawings the black lines move dynamically across the paper plane, creating relationships between constituent elements which are both interconnected and independent.
