http://web.me.com/profkoslow/Susan_Koslow/Capriccio_3.html Pen and india--ink drawings on newsprint (18 x 24) dating from c 1961--1962. They were done at one “sitting,” and are a free flow of invented motifs. None were intended as preparatory studies for a picture. Some originate in personal experiences and emotions, others from art viewed in classes at Barnard College, Columbia University, the Metropolitan Museum of Art or books. Obviously, I was looking at Picasso line drawings, Matisse, possibly, and certainly Italian Renaissance imagery; this connection is attested by the central female figure in a long gown and possibly in the small drawing below where Adam and Eve are being expelled. None are copies. I chose capriccio rather than studies or sketches to capture the flavor of the immediacy of invention and the whimsy and playfulness of many, but not all of the actors. Scattering the figures across the sheet recalls arrangements in Hokusai’s Manga. Drawings from Capices 3a accidentally are conjoined with Caprices 3. http://web.me.com/profkoslow/Susan_Koslow/Capriccio_3.html#0 4841f6d8-0c4d-441e-a7a6-53300c59c34f http://web.me.com/profkoslow/Susan_Koslow/Capriccio_3_files/Media/IMG_6363.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.me.com/profkoslow/Susan_Koslow/Capriccio_3_files/Media/IMG_6363.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px;
