At the Taos Studio

At the Studio in Taos pen and ink 8" x 10"


This is a pen and ink drawing that I did inside a friends' studio. It shows the struggle I was having between working in an abstract mode and working in a more realistic way. The studio wall is developed from a style that I had been working on for quite a while. Then I simply inserted the window and exterior scene with the resulting juxtaposition between the wall and the outside view. I would later while living in Maine come back to this theme, but at the time
that this piece was completed, I was working almost entirely outdoors.
