Sekhmet:
A Return to
Pencil and Color



This interpretation of Sekhmet, a fierce goddess from ancient Ægypt, marks my return to color drawing.

This return has been a long process, during which I have thought more than I have actually attempted. I was concerned because, after years of working primarily in ink, I found that my ideas demanded a focus on graphite. And one thought kept coming to mind: would it work in color? Would this medium, which I had used exclusively for monochromatic imagery, take to my treatment of color as well as ink?

In this, my first earnest experiment with that very approach, I feel enormously successful. It is the beginning of a new evolution in my work.

Hail Sekhmet!
