  1. eBook: Portraiture Bianca Nalls

  2. Mary Borgman . Drawings are traditionally admired for their directness, as the most immediate transcription—from eye to hand to paper—of an artist’s imagination. Over the past two decades, however, contemporary artists have moved beyond the quick sketch, compositional study, or memory aid to embrace drawing with new enthusiasm and ambition.  Merwin (Merf) Shaw Charcoal on Mylar, 2009 Courtesy of Ann Nathan Gallery, Chicago, Illinois http://www.npg.si.edu/exhibit/drawing/ Borgman encourages her subjects to listen to their own music and think about something important to them while facing the camera. Gradually, her sitters gain confidence and pose less self-consciously, revealing their individual sensibilities http://www.npg.si.edu/exhibit/drawing/borgman.html
