Alfred Freddy Krupa made "The big breast girl in the field of dandelions" with ink, probably on paper, and wow, what a title! The ink is really immediate, really fluid, like he didn't hesitate. There's a lot of space left to the imagination in the contrast between the darks and the light of the paper. It feels like a drawing, but the way he uses the brush is painterly. Look how the dandelions are almost exploding around her head. One of them has this splattery blue in the center that kind of grounds the piece. I keep coming back to the way the ink drips from the breasts. It's so physical, it makes you think about gravity, about the body, and the way ink can just do what it wants. It reminds me of some of Marlene Dumas' ink drawings, the way she's able to get so much emotion with so little information. Ultimately, there's something beautiful in the imperfection, that speaks to the art-making process.
