“Dimensional drawings”… that’s how Colorado based artist/assoc. drawing professor Ajean Ryan refers to these pieces from her very extensive portfolio. There is something so fun, experimental, child-like about them. Bits and pieces from everyday life assembled into delicate, 3D “drawings”… drawings that have me convinced to drop everything and run to my studio so I can start gluing something to something else!

    Ahh, I just want to touch it. is that bad of me? 🙂
    It’s also a delicious affirmation about the direction my own work is taking for a grp show in january.. working thru some of the trickier bits and this is a nice window for perspective. thanks.

    What the what?!! SO good. The little kid in me does want to purse my lips and blow . . . but I won’t. I am gonna try to construct something myself though. It’s like a house of cards, only a squillion times better!!

    inspiring and unique–yes, I am feeling the jealousy:) also feeling that impulse to share with everyone (which I haven’t had in a while) as I think these dimensional drawings are so delicate, joyful and bold..I want to see them live. As a mixed media artist working in thread, tape, etc.–I am especially interested in how she integrates the thread.
