Ud for den imellem Buskene... 1928

Fritz Syberg made this landscape drawing with pen and ink on paper. It's all about the lines, right? Hatching, cross-hatching, scribbles – the whole shebang! Look at that big, bulbous tree smack-dab in the middle. Those frantic lines aren’t trying to mimic nature, but evoke the *feeling* of being in the woods. Syberg really knew how to let loose and let the process be visible. I can almost feel his hand moving quickly across the paper, trying to capture the essence of the scene. This reminds me a bit of some drawings by Van Gogh, all that expressive mark-making just vibrating with energy. You know, art isn't about perfection, it's about letting your ideas flow, just like Syberg did here.
