Ear Study With Curl

Rose Chapman

Created 2 June 2026 at 23:06

A single anatomical fragment dominates the upper field - the outer curve of an ear traced in confident cobalt blue against bare white. Rose Chapman works the line with careful restraint, allowing the cartilage's interior spiral to remain deliberately open, unresolved at its terminus. The weight of the stroke thickens and softens around the lobe, suggesting close observational looking rather than schematic reproduction.
