Before the Fall

Small series of graphite drawings focused on the concept of containment, conformity, and adaptation.

This small series was my first attempt in good while to draw a bit larger than usual. Most of my work is small or digital, preventing me from solving some of the issues that come up with larger drawings. I wanted to illustrate multiple forms of self-inflicted containment using fundamental shapes. Adding to the containment is the element of confusion or ignorance, in the form of invasive clouds and fog.
