About this work

This is a drawing from 1984 by David Connearn. It’s a non-figurative work, meaning it doesn’t show a clear scene or object. It’s all about the method behind its making. Connearn trained in London and has spent decades focusing just on drawing. He uses a strict approach that explores what drawing can be without trying to express feelings. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
