Player IV Original Art by Tim Wang
Mixed Media
Framed 77cm x 77cm
This evocative charcoal drawing showcases Wang's signature 'motion impressionism' technique. The piece captures a jazz trumpeter in mid-performance, their form dissolving into dynamic gestural marks that suggest both movement and music.
Wang's distinctive style is evident in his freehand approach and masterful manipulation of charcoal tones. His careful attention to the interplay between light and shadow, combined with fluid, energetic strokes, creates a piece that perfectly captures the ephemeral nature of musical performance. The composition emerges from his characteristic focal point technique, expanding outward to create a sense of rhythm and spontaneity.
