La Piscine
Part of the series on my grandmother, whom I never met.
I love that she’s floating around the swimming pool in a buoy – actually a tyre inner liner – smoking her cigarette. She’s just enjoying herself.
Like for the other pieces of the series, the sharpness of the acrylic gouache background makes the pencil drawing of the figure look slightly hazy, alluding to my quest to put together a clear image of who my grandmother was.
Pencil and acrylic gouache on paper.
17.9 cm x 17.9 cm
Drawn for pleasure.
