Spindle (Contemporary, Expressionist Charcoal Landscape Drawing of Single Tree by Sue Bryan) 24 x 30 inches Charcoal and acrylic on Primed Canvas Mounted on Wood Panel Excellent condition, Ready to hang as is (A traditional frame with glass is not required as the work has been fully varnished). This contemporary charcoal landscape drawing on canvas was completed in 2021 by Sue Bryan. Born in Ireland, the artist uses landscapes from her childhood as inspiration for her current work primarily consisting of beautifully detailed charcoal drawings of trees and wooded landscapes. The artist captures exquisite detail and luminous light with the mere use of black and white charcoal and carbon pencil. The artist creates this tree through a blend of light and shadow that demonstrates the artist's masterful technique. Dark leaves and winding branches in black charcoal contrast elegantly against a light filled sky. There is sturdy wire installed on the back for easy hanging. The smokey silhouette of a landscape rendered in charcoal is how Sue Bryan first commands your attention. A velvety rich, monochromatic palette of tonal greys are captivating from a distance and inviting in proximity. Bryan’s ability to distill the land’s complexities while preserving interest and integrity on a four-inch surface remains unparalleled. This work is tinged with a robin's egg blue and very pale peach acrylic, a distinguishing touch that further endows the work with warmth and whimsy. Sue Bryan’s artistic practice repeatedly acknowledges the edges of knowing and celebrates the wonders of the unknown! Artist Statement: "My work is drawing based. As a native of Ireland, the landscape there has certainly shaped and influenced my own history. Many of my drawings are of places that have a deep personal association for me; an endeavor perhaps to stay connected to my roots. My aim is not only to convey a sense of place and belonging, but also an attempt to capture the ineffable, to evoke a feeling or a memory, to invite the viewer to look beyond and beneath what they see. My process is one of building up tones and textures using a combination of charcoal, carbon and graphite, all of which yield a wonderful range of blacks and grays that vary in density and transparency as much as in tonality. Much of drawing’s appeal to me lies in its very constraint, in its simplification, in the reduction of nature’s macrocosm to the coal-black char of organic matter. For me, the act of drawing is an end in itself." About the work: A native of Ireland, Sue Bryan explores the memories of youth rooted in her homeland's landscape. Employing charcoal on both paper and panel, these moody and misty studies reminds us that the water-locked terrain is not always sunny and green. Exquisite detail found in each tree branch or mass of tall grasses lining the horizon dominates the foreground. Light emulates from the background attempting to penetrate the density of opaque cloud cover. Bryan's small scale drawings convey an intimate and highly personal sense of place and belonging.
