Beasts
I created a series of strange Beast based on some doodles
I found in an old sketchbook from my late mother. She scribbled some undefined shapes with a circular hatching technique which fascinated me.
The original drawings are shown in an exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Alkmaar from 25th of June until the 25th of September 2022.
