The Field Marshall, by Jennifer Copley-May, 2023, pen and ink on Japanese paper, 16x32cm (artwork 6x21cm), for sale mounted
This piece, and others that are in the browser, are completely spontaneous, using skills and techniques developed over many years. I prepare the paper and often, whilst it is still damp, I make a mark… and then another… and then another… and more… often holding my breath… until I stop. It doesn’t always lead to success!
The Field Marshall is one of a charming series of spontaneous pen and ink drawings, depicting characterful imagined birds – their eccentric forms and also their titles simply sprang off the page. This bird means business, of a benign sort of course.
