Green Face Before Paint; brush and ink; Oct 2008

October 7, 2008 - 10:09pm — lindakentartist

I never had any formal art instruction. I don't know what I'm drawing till it's done.
And even then I don't necessarily know. I almost always draw directly with ink.
All these pictures are on normal size paper, 8x11ish, usually from one to six faces crammed on a page.

Get This Man out of the Picture; ink and pen; Oct 2008

October 4, 2008 - 7:22pm — lindakentartist

This is a detail of something that turns out to be a cartoon (see prev. pics)...These two faces, despite winding up as cartoons, these were attempts at a My Lai painting; they're trying for the expression of a woman moments before being shot to death with her family by US soldiers after being rounded up in a small group. in the famous My Lai massacre (Vietnam War) photos that appeared in LIFE magazine back then. I keep trying to get it over the years. But this woman was also angry. Also in the group in the photo is a picture of an openmouthed terrified little girl of four or so clinging to a skirt and a young woman holding a toddler. They wereare dead moments after the photo was taken.
