Analyze This!

My roomate (Angel) recently asked me to create three drawings while he observed me work, for an Art Therapy course he is taking. He says that he will now analyze the works and my methods in order to identify aspects of my personality (or something like that...). Boy is he in for a treat! So here are the three drawings I made on three different days, with not much conscious thought behind them, instead I just kind of started drawing and went with the flow. I'm curious to see what conclusions Angel comes to - hopefully I'm not any more crazy than I already think I am!

Drawing #1: watercolor and Sharpie marker...it began as a still life, which I then decided was too boring, so I added the lady.

Drawing #2: um yeah, don't ask. I started by doin' a little watercolor, and then drew on top with Sharpie, but I'm not sure exactly how I arrived at such disturbing figures. The one in the middle is based on a doodle I made on the subway. Here she is in close-up:

Ok, and finally drawing #3...

This one is a little different. I drew on tracing paper instead of bristol paper, colored in with blue pencil and yellow highlighter, and decided not to include any figures. I like to think of it as "geometric parent-child volleyball with a brick wall in place of a net and no ball and also it's raining." Unfortunately the tracing paper is larger than my scanner so the top part got cut off. But you get the jist.

And the winner is...? Well Angel had to choose one of the three drawings to discuss in depth for his paper, and he chose Drawing #3! I kind of liked drawing under pressure, it ended up producing some pretty weird and interesting drawings!
