There's a reason artists have reached for sanguine ink for centuries when they want to capture motion rather than detail: the colour itself does the work of urgency. Brick-red, earthen, almost like rust or dried clay — carrying weight and warmth at once, the colour of dust kicked up mid-ride.

Wrangler Roundup
Drawn in encre de Chine, loose and fast, in that same raw, gestural tradition as Pablo Picasso’s great Spanish ink studies of bulls and bullfighters. The same language of strokes made to evoke the raw motions of a rider and his horse. The sketch holds its own as a genuine wall piece, raw enough to still feel like it was caught in a single breath.
This kind of storytelling strips down to the core — rustic, organic, a little wild at the edges. It favours instinct over precision, movement over polish, character over perfection, with the same spirit and grit of the West, rendered here in its most stripped-back, honest form.
Hand-painted in sanguine encre de Chine on cold pressed paper.
Original one-of-a-kind ink sketch, A3(29.7 x 42cm).
Signed by the artist & comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Each sketch is sold individually and does not come framed.
