It seems as though I have developed an ongoing series of posts… “Contemporary Artists that Inspire Me”. CJ Hendry, Cicero d’Avila and now Barry Jazz Finnegan. His large charcoal drawings are stunning. The video is truly a wonder of creative achievement.

The thread that seems to run though the artists that I’m drawn to is the simplicity of their work. This is charcoal on paper on a large scale. Period. No weird techniques or materials. Just an artist using his talent. Seeing his work makes ME want to do large charcoal drawings on paper. Bravo, Mr. Finnegan.
