Artist's Comments

23x33 charcoal drawing on Rives BFK. Used photographic reference of model friends I posed, composed, and composited into the constellation of elements of the fountain arcanum.
The underground stream is a concept within many (if not all mythologies) of the knowledge of underlying forces or currents behind everything that guide us all through further mutations.
Thank you Mo, Dan, Sean, Earl, Carol, and May.

When I first glanced at this, I thought "Photograph."

This is so realistic looking, you did a wonderful job.

I can't stop looking at it.

There are a couple fountains near my art school in Baltimore where I like to be when I need to get in touch with some plantlife. I'm a student at the Maryland Institute, College of Art. Going to be a junior this Fall.
