white and sanguine pastel on Canson Moonstone paper
Simplicity and beauty are one in this elegant drawing.
The artist studies the living human form to learn the
disciplines of beauty. Tactile values are at the heart
of it, and are evident in this work.
The noted art expert Bernard Berenson considered tactile
values the touchstone of the greatest artworks. We
often experience the tactile unconsciously, but consciously
following the touch of the artist's hand in the realizing of forms
can be an exciting experience. For example, follow the
edge of the shoulder with your finger, down the arm to the
elbow; note the changes from softness to firmness.
See how the tones seem to touch the body. These are
the tactile values that enliven the art of Alvin Sandler.
You can have this magnificent drawing for only $200. If you
select a suite of four drawings, the price is only $150 each.
