From now till March 24, 2007, the still life drawings of Skip Steinworth will be on display at the Sardella Fine Art gallery in Aspen. Entitled "Drawn from Life", the subject for Steinworth's remarkable graphite drawings range from 17th-century Dutch still life arrangements to more pedestrian everyday objects.
Since 1977, Minnesota artist, Steinworth, has created pencil drawings exclusively for almost 20 years. Each drawing is done using fourteen grades of graphite pencil. The restriction from color offers Steinworth "a tour de force control of tonalities that clearly distinguish one surface from another... there is an ease of verisimilitude that causes austerity to give way to richness. It is as though a shot of hard liquor were to go down as smoothly as water".
