Richard Sweeney

Thought it would be appropriate to take a look at some of Richard Sweeney's work. His work is very delicate and graceful. I love the curves and pleats in his work which add texture. I especially like the Motion Forms he has produced. A method called wet folding was used, which allows easier manipulation of the paper. The shapes produced remind me of waves and other organic forms found in nature. 

This is an Ink on paper mono print by Sweeney. It is very expressive and tonal, something I will have to try out myself in my sketchbook.
