Rechts unfreundlich (Right Unfriendly) 1940

Paul Klee made this drawing, Rechts unfreundlich, or Right Unfriendly, with brush and ink on paper. It's all about the process, you know? How one mark leads to another, like a conversation you’re having with yourself. Here, the black ink sits right on the surface, immediate and bold. The brushstrokes feel intuitive, kind of playful, but also sure of themselves. Look at the top right – that almost-triangle shape with the little dot nearby. It’s like a character, isn’t it? A quirky figure in a play, caught mid-gesture. Klee's work always feels like a mix of humor and the profound. He reminds me a bit of Miró, in the sense of making art that embraces ambiguity, inviting multiple interpretations. It’s this openness that makes his art so endlessly fascinating.
