Dirk Marwig 2015 Works (1)

Human Vault Female SQ

The “Human Vault”… Dark, Deceptive and Sexy  -I love to work with Bic-pens. It’s fun and the smeary blue ink has a special quality that I like perfect for this drawing/painting.  Again the DNA of the painting is based on

Apollo (Oil on Japan-paper mounted on wood panel, 72.2cm x 63.6cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

Heightened Awareness

This little painting was in my studio for 2 years. Something was missing and last night in a ‘state of Heightened Awareness’ and without thinking I added 4 highlights and suddenly the painting came alive. Wow. -If look at it

The format of this painting is a “Golden Rectangle”. The theme is nasty but fun!
