About the Item
When at the Binckhorst At the Binckhorst I met a model who posed nude for me and a student of mine. The live model sketch was in pastel and in fact I got the taste to do some more. It so happened I bought an iPad Pro the other day and on advice of another student I installed Procreate. Surely her first hand experience turned me into an enthusiast and convinced me to give it a go. Consequently the model’s features served as a first attempt and I must say I was not dissatisfied. You can see the digital drawing on my blog. iPad Moves I was confused though. Should I consider this a new medium and henceforth create digital drawings? After all, I am an artist selling physical drawings and oils and do not sell printables (digital downloads) that much yet. For the time being the initial digital drawing served as a prestudy for this graphite pencil drawing. What can I say? I like these new mediums and as a middle aged guy I cannot duck away from new developments. In a way it is fascinating: sketching with a fake 6B graphite pencil. On a glass sheet it almost gives you the same experience as a real one. But what is real in the first place? For sure my techniques and skills are, whether put in bytes or on paper. Mind boggling it remains. I sketched in bytes as a prestudy for this real drawing, only to be scanned in bytes back. The Pose The actual pose I used showed the model in a triangular side view. It was plain to see she had all the good proportions and musculature. Therefor I could put the stress on muscle groups and block the lights on around them. The lenght and width are the same in this particular pose, showing squarish proportions. I did not want to use square-sized paper. Then again there was this negative space arising from boxing in a square onto A4-size paper. I solved this compositionary problem by placing some squares and triangles around her. In a way they also reflect the props around her in the actual studio. They also serve as a reference to my earlier cubist and roundism work some years back.

- Two Wood Ducks on a Flowering BranchBy Joseph StellaLocated in New York, NYJoseph Stella was a visionary artist who painted what he saw, an idiosyncratic and individual experience of his time and place. Stella arrived in New York in 1896, part of a wave of Italian immigrants from poverty-stricken Southern Italy. But Stella was not a child of poverty. His father was a notary and respected citizen in Muro Locano, a small town in the southern Appenines. The five Stella brothers were all properly educated in Naples. Stella’s older brother, Antonio, was the first of the family to come to America. Antonio Stella trained as a physician in Italy, and was a successful and respected doctor in the Italian community centered in Greenwich Village. He sponsored and supported his younger brother, Joseph, first sending him to medical school in New York, then to study pharmacology, and then sustaining him through the early days of his artistic career. Antonio Stella specialized in the treatment of tuberculosis and was active in social reform circles. His connections were instrumental in Joseph Stella’s early commissions for illustrations in reform journals. Joseph Stella, from the beginning, was an outsider. He was of the Italian-American community, but did not share its overwhelming poverty and general lack of education. He went back to Italy on several occasions, but was no longer an Italian. His art incorporated many influences. At various times his work echoed the concerns and techniques of the so-called Ashcan School, of New York Dada, of Futurism and, of Cubism, among others. These are all legitimate influences, but Stella never totally committed himself to any group. He was a convivial, but ultimately solitary figure, with a lifelong mistrust of any authority external to his own personal mandate. He was in Europe during the time that Alfred Stieglitz established his 291 Gallery. When Stella returned he joined the international coterie of artists who gathered at the West Side apartment of the art patron Conrad Arensberg. It was here that Stella became close friends with Marcel Duchamp. Stella was nineteen when he arrived in America and studied in the early years of the century at the Art Students League, and with William Merritt Chase, under whose tutelage he received rigorous training as a draftsman. His love of line, and his mastery of its techniques, is apparent early in his career in the illustrations he made for various social reform journals. Stella, whose later work as a colorist is breathtakingly lush, never felt obliged to choose between line and color. He drew throughout his career, and unlike other modernists, whose work evolved inexorably to more and more abstract form, Stella freely reverted to earlier realist modes of representation whenever it suited him. This was because, in fact, his “realist” work was not “true to nature,” but true to Stella’s own unique interpretation. Stella began to draw flowers, vegetables, butterflies, and birds in 1919, after he had finished the Brooklyn Bridge series of paintings, which are probably his best-known works. These drawings of flora and fauna were initially coincidental with his fantastical, nostalgic and spiritual vision of his native Italy which he called Tree of My Life (Mr. and Mrs. Barney A. Ebsworth Foundation and Windsor, Inc., St. Louis, illus. in Barbara Haskell, Joseph Stella, exh. cat. [New York: Whitney Museum of American Art, 1994], p. 111 no. 133). Two Wood Ducks...Category
