Ogee (the drawing)









Tom White ~ 
 O Gee Curves
photo by Styrous®






I’m reminded of a cello’s heart.
— harp curves
— young body slopes
— architecture school, where I was introduced to this elegant, multi curved line, soft,  and of Middle Eastern origin.

It’s visual significance indicates a message of fullness and double fullness as in a young human face from 3/4 rear view.

A single one of these lines appears to lie flat on the page. Two of them (not too far removed) create an impression of volume or fullness.

This drawing, informed by the cutouts on a violin, tends to be phallic if it weren’t for the sparse use of straight lines creating more chiseled 3d shapes dancing side by side.

Writing about a drawing is like writing about wine: very subjective and questionable .  .  .

In the drawing I like the way the lines kiss the soft paper. Poetry.
