Gestural Ink Drawing #55
About this artwork
Artist Gail Ragain displays a nude woman with her leg elegantly raised, standing on her tiptoes. Gail infuses the piece with spontaneous bursts of expression, followed by deliberate lines created with bamboo reed dipped in ink. The model holds the pose for one to two minutes, instilling a sense of urgency to observe and intuitively capture the gesture, reflecting the energy of this piece.
