After finishing my previous drawing, Truly, in the Red Book last night, I went directly to the next page to start a new drawing. The underlying pages are quite different with the new page being mostly white space with stronger header text.
I am only making drawings on the right hand pages in this book so I don’t generally consider the context of the left to right page spread but there are still elements that can’t help catch my eye and contribute something. In this case, the left page has a photo of the 1976 Olympic Stadium. I decided to reference that photo by painting a rectangle of the same ratio on the right page in luminous pink.
So far, this drawing is fairly “minimal” — for me at least. I’ll likely have a bit of friction around that since it’s in my nature to over work things. We’ll see.
