NEXT FALL - A play By Geoffrey Nauffts at Actors Theatre of Charlotte in NC

Starts October 28 and runs till November 19 2011


Terry Thirion - drawings


I had the privilege of attending many of the rehearsals. Sketching the actors and scenes was an amazing process. I watched the actors evolve from stumbling and forgetting their lines to a flawless performance. I sought to capture the mood and emotions of the characters in over 30 drawings that are now on display in the lobby.

Most of the drawings were done with a tree twig about 20 inches long. This simple and natural stick gave me a variety of line thicknesses and its use helps me stay looser than if I just draw with a thin pen. I then added a touch of color with a brush.

A beautiful acrobat


When in Hot Springs I visited our friends the Meechos. Such contortionists (the dogs of course)
