The use of mixed media began around 1912 with the cubist collages and constructions of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, and has become widespread as artists developed increasingly open attitudes to the media of art. Essentially art can be made of anything or any combination of things. • • • • • #dmathewslee #dmlee #art #artist #artfromthedeepsouth #southernartist #artwork_in_studio #withdrawingroomstudio #withdrawingroomstudio #thewithdrawingroom #markmakingart #colorandform #originalart #instaartiste #artistsofinstagram #artistoninstagram #instagramart #alabamaartist #birminghamianart #birmnghamartwork #birminghamartist #mixingmediums #stitch #threadedcanvas #sewn #texturedforms

In his 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language Noah Webster sought out the derivation of the word dragon among the ancient Medieval roots. He concluded, “Hence I infer that the word originally signified a shooting meteor in the atmosphere, a fiery meteor, and hence a fiery or flying serpent, from a root which signified to shoot or draw out.” His first definition of the word dragon was “A kind of winged serpent, much celebrated in the romance of the middle ages.” (Webster, Daniel, An American Dictionary of the English Language, S. Converse, New York, 1828, p. 67.) • • • • • #dmathewslee #dmlee #art #artist #artfromthedeepsouth #southernartist #artwork_in_studio #withdrawingroomstudio #withdrawingroomstudio #thewithdrawingroom #markmakingart #abstractivism #visionistic #colorandform #originalart #instaartiste #artistsofinstagram #artistoninstagram #instagramart #alabamaartist #birminghamianart #birmnghamartwork #birminghamartist #chaosgouache #coloredwater

It is the soul that sees; the outward eyes Present the object, but the Mind descries. We see nothing till we truly understand it.

When iron and carbon come together, there emerges steel! To be something stronger and better, you must mostly unite with something else and melt in something else!

“Darkness” I am a forest, and a night of dark trees: but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra This lithograph piece is a representation of southern charm and culture’s dark side. A callout to a Southern Gothic sensibility. The seemingly random dividing line in “Darkness” is a map tracing of the great Mississippi River who’s muddy banks have seen our history at its darkest hours. • • • • • #dmlee #dmathewslee #withdrawingroomstudio #lithograph #thedarknessbecomesme #embracethedark #southerngothiccharm #southernarts #southernartist #birmingamartist

“Nosferatu” an homage "Sunrise is far away and during the day I have to sleep, my friend.” – Count Orlok Approaching its centenary Nosferatu is still haunting and ethereal. German filmmaker F.W. Murnau was inventing the paradigms as he went along. His work was very ambitious and innovative in technical terms too, incorporating everything from real, rural locations (as the action passes a roadside shrine) to Expressionist sets (accentuating the angles of the castle interior) to microphotography (Bulwer's lecture on "a polyp with tentacles"). For audiences in 1922, Nosferatu must have been a truly marvelous viewing experience. • • • • • #dmlee #dmathewslee #withdrawingroomstudio #charcoalmedium #arthomage #horroressentials #Nosferatu #FWMurnau #aheadofitstime #Germanexpressionism #vampiric #southernarts #southernartist #birmingamartist #frommydrawingtable #renderedhorror

“No Simple Machine” Nothing lasts forever, not even the best machines. And everything can be reused. _Hephaestus In 1858, Drs. Henry Gray and Henry Vandyke Carter created a book for their surgical colleagues that established an enduring standard among anatomical texts. After more than 150 years of continuous publication, Gray’s Anatomy remains the definitive, comprehensive reference on the subject. • • • • • #dmlee #dmathewslee #withdrawingroomstudio #inkmedium #simplemachine #Graysanatomy #anatomicalrendering #anatomicalmachine #artsandscience #southernarts #southernartist #birmingamartist
