Of by Steven McCabe

As if the drip of machinery oil
And of knowledge of musculature
Were enough
In the search of room after room
Coinciding with the rediscovery of sculpture
Coinciding with the sculpture of rediscovery.

These delicate lines (both words and drawings) are beautiful, Steven. The more figurative drawing has such wonderful gestural lines and expression.
Thanks Karen. I really appreciate hearing your thoughts about the dynamics of the drawing.
Steven, these are such beautiful drawings. I really respond to the graceful and the delicate lines of both formats as well. Then there is the interweaving of worlds: human and vegetable, natural and supernatural. That first drawing is alive with purpose- sight and reaching, wind and growing, survival and pain.
thank you Jack. I really appreciate your response. You really twigged into the feeling of that one drawing – I couldn’t have put it as well in words.
