ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2020 Submission

Lindamood’s compulsion to draw is about capturing the visual beauty she sees in the world around her. She is drawn to the plethora of mathematically based patterns found in nature, such a spots on a jaguar or the feathers of pelican. Streetscapes abound in lines and shapes. And, rodeo scenes abound with all manner of shapes, patterns and the drama of the test of wills between man and animal.

A well-established pastel artist, Patsy Lindamood knows how to create works of art which burst with color and vibrancy. But a few years ago, she felt compelled to return to working in graphite as means to focus on shapes and values. For her graphite works, she selects subject matter with a strong range of values from darkest dark to lightest light. This range of values affords her the opportunity to create drama and visual intensity.
