Description“Mapplethorpe Dance” (2021)by Carson Grubaugh (1981- ) 8.5 x 11 in., ink on paper Coppola Collection At the Patreon site organized by Sean Michael Robinson and Carson Grubaugh, which accompanies their collaboration on “Living the Line,” they offer a premium based on Carson’s Google Grab-Bag schtick. He offers an original straight-to-ink sketch. Here is how that works. You are asked to provide a word or phrase (and obviously you can game this a bit). Carson then searches this word or phrase using Google Images. The first photographic image listed by Google Images will be the source material for the straight-to-ink sketch. Carson has got a great eye. In fact, it freaks me out. He can use a brush (or pen) on paper with NO underlying outline, lay down lines or brushstrokes all over the page, and in about 20-30 minutes he produces a sketch. And all without the training wheels! He records it live. There are videos of this on YouTube (and at the Patreon site). The November 2021 Grab-Bag phrase came from me. In fact, all three words that were voted on came from me. Given the things you can put after the name Mapplethorpe, I am a kind devil, so “Mapplethorpe Dance,” “Mapplethorpe Kiss,” and “Mapplethorpe Hug.” Mapplethorpe Dance was the winner. The picture that Carson worked from is in the additional images. The Patreon Site: https://www.patreon.com/livingtheline/posts The Home Site: https://www.livingthelinebooks.com Social/Sharing |

That time lapse is crazy. He makes it look so damn easy, and that arm with the elbow coming out toward the viewer is anything but easy.

Capturing the sensitivity in the style that Carson created this is completely beyond my ken.
