About this artwork

Daedalus And Icarus

20×16 in

Black India pen & ink heightened with watercolor and tempera

“Son Icarus does not heed father Daedalus’ singular warning. Icarus crashes to earth after flying too close to the sun with wax wings. Daedalus, the artificer, the magical inventor of wings, wished only that his son escape the Cretan labyrinth controlled by a Minotaur. In this work mythic characters are bound up in rhythmic layers—clouds and mist roll over a choppy sea and a promontory outpost in its midst. Daedalus cannot but bear witness; his son is about to pay the ultimate price for his reckless and youthful abandon.”
