"Rhythmic Beat of the Gu"
some Chinese water color on cotton paper
27" x 27"
A part of the musical group, the Gu is a very ancient kind of drum. Placed in close relation with the female it represents another exceptional study in purity of line. Note the interplay of hard and soft surfaces, the delicate color composition, and how such depth is achieved through the artist's seemingly simple lines. Also a study in balance and symmetry through which we experience a classic truth as profound and old as humanity.
