In this drawing, I want to represent the snow on the rock.
What I do in this drawing is just draw the dark rock, without a hatch.
Filling only the dark spaces of the rock, the parts that emerge from the snow.
The snow, in fact, is represented by the white sheet, and it is the rocks that must emerge and that I am going to draw.
I Draw black to draw snow.
The snow is not drawn, the snow, in this case, is already on the cardboard, but the rock distinguishes it and presents it to our eyes.
It is a deception.
Drawing with the pen gives me the opportunity to dig furrows, to push the sphere against the cardboard.
If I look at this drawing against the light, I see these grooves, which represent the passage of the pen and therefore my drawing.
And this is very important to me.
It should also be important for the viewer to be able to see them and reconstruct the path of the pen.
I use two pens, the BIC Cristal Original, for the whole drawing, and the BIC Cristal Large for the final part, wherein some places I place a deeper black.
I greet you and leave you to the video, not before having wished you all the best, and, remembering to subscribe to the channel, to support it, to like it, to share the video if you liked it, and to comment under the description.
Good vision, I hope that the passages on the sheet can be a true testimony of the path of the composition and construction of the work.

The event can be followed live on the Instagram account @ParkerHarrisCo at 7 pm
I present this work today, here on my website because it represents a milestone in my career that I am proud of.
This drawing represents the archetype of the cloud. A cloud tangled in the sign of the pen that testifies to the travail of this time. Witness of those interminable days when the sky was the only comforting screen. Those clouds are enclosed here, in their greatest form, above a still sea. The passage of the pen on the paper, in the curves, in the tangled lines, retraces time in the rhythmic advance of an absolute awareness of the reconsideration of the environment as the only indispensable good. Each sign is forever, because it cannot be reviewed, canceled, but only superimposed on subsequent ones such as days, months and years, as an act of absolute love towards nature.

Vi presento oggi questo lavoro, qui sul mio sito perché rappresenta una pietra miliare della mia carriera di cui sono orgoglioso.
Questo disegno rappresenta l’archetipo della nuvola. Una nuvola aggrovigliata nel segno della penna che testimonia il travaglio di questo tempo. Testimone di quei giorni interminabili in cui il cielo era l’unico schermo confortante. Quelle nuvole sono racchiuse qui, nella loro forma più grande, sopra un mare immobile. Il passaggio della penna sulla carta, nelle curve, nelle linee aggrovigliate, ripercorre il tempo nell’avanzare ritmico di un’assoluta consapevolezza della riconsiderazione dell’ambiente come unico bene indispensabile. Ogni segno è per sempre, perché non può essere rivisto, cancellato, ma solo sovrapposto a quelli successivi come giorni, mesi e anni, come atto di amore assoluto verso la natura
