Diebenkorn drawing
Continuing the study of Richard Diebenkorn, my partner and I did a large charcoal copy of one of Diebenkorn’s paintings. It was interesting working with a partner on this. At times, it was difficult because you would have to go back and redo certain sections depending on how one person did what. Other times, it was entirely convenient because whenever certain parts got to be unporportional, one person would stand up and judge it while the other could mark the corrections that needed to be made. Overall I think we did a good copy. The charcoal was a bit much for the entire paper, but hey, you just have to dive right in. I think it would be interesting to try this with oil as well.
