    A Piece of Her in Monochrome, 2020

    Visual Description

    A meticulously rendered, black and white photo-realistic and close-up graphite drawing of a square of a crocheted blanket. At the center is a lighter-toned four-leaved clover shape. Crocheted “leaves” - drawn in methodical detail - emanate out in concentric circles, forming a blanket square. The drawn blanket square is framed in darker yarn around all four edges.
