The Figure in Watercolor (jgyoungmd)

The Thinker

Watercolor on Arches Paper  22″ x 30″

The Thinker

 

Not of the heroic age

chiseled in stone

larger than life,

 

but water on paper,

frontal, naked,

tired, hungry, broke,

in the full Monte

motionless

 

for rent money,

while eyes trace t(his

body with pencils,

 

sketchy, unclear

boundaries,

rough edges

dripping uncertainty,

bespotted in a world

of unkind choices.

 

*cf. Auguste Rodin’s The Thinker
