Continuing with a variation on the 'effacement' theme (cf. Gerhard Richter's 'unpainting' technique applied to the majority of his portraits & figure compositions), this time nature lending a momentary hand to the original newspaper-published photograph from which the drawing was processed...

Soundtrack:


Moon Wiring Club 'Shoes Off and Chairs Away'
Primal Scream 'Screamadelica'
Jeff Buckley 'Grace'
Frank Sinatra 'Songs for Swingin' Lovers'
Elvis Costello & the Attractions 'Blood and Chocolate'
