Don Deleva 2004



M1 Spec:  graphite, water color on Bristol paper, 11/12/2004

Surrealism and Italian Futurism were the original art movements that captured my attention.
Some how using a ruler and intersecting triangles released pent up energy in me and it continues to be a source of emotional release. This period of work for me was about the total abstraction of the human body. I saw each drawing as a metaphor for emotional state of mind of the figure. Each shape, shade and texture represented the subjects compartmentalized thoughts and emotions.

  The Transmogrification of Hal Benningforth on his walk to the Substation Seattle upon applying his first ear plug . You dashing stranger with one ear plug, where is the second? I swallowed the second. What ? Yeah, I have a habit of chewing on them.
