Drawing No. 5 1972

Keith Martin's "Drawing No. 5" from 1972 is a pencil drawing of three abstract, organic shapes, possibly depicting human figures. The artist, known for his bold and expressionistic style, uses layered lines and shading to create a sense of depth and volume in the forms. The composition is dynamic, with the shapes seemingly floating and interacting with each other in a space that appears both earthly and ethereal. The drawing's raw and gestural quality, coupled with its ambiguous subject matter, invites the viewer to engage in a personal interpretation of its meaning.
