White Pine charcoal markings

4" x 5" panels

Mulberry paper / Rice paper

Tillson NY

charcoal markings with White Pine Pinus alba branches charred in Fire... 

the resinous White Pine is known by many traditional cultures as flexible with the winds of change, to a degree, and Is considered to be Tree of Peace with the Iroquois Federation...

with this dyptich of drawings/markings I was exploring continuities with left and right hands... this markings is with left hand with left panel, right with right panel...

there's a certain graphic character/quality to this drawing remembering me with my male youth indoctrinations with "Dick and Jane" genre children's lit with not so subtle patriarchal concepts...
