This and the following page are devoted to the preliminary sketches that I drew for paintings of this period. Non-abstract paintings almost always start with these (admittedly rudimentary) drawings, the better to lay out the design of the painting and discern how its different elements should interact with each other.
It didn't really occur to me to save these until about 2020, which is why there aren't any earlier sketches included. Click on the title of each sketch to go to its respective Arthive page and view the finished painting.
