Jake Gillespie’s graphite and chalk murals

Reader Find

by Gerry Mak in New Art on Wednesday 4 March 2009

Nebraska-based artist Jake Gillespie makes huge graphite-and-chalk drawings and black and white murals. His sparse lines (often just gestural) and dark, smudgy fields of color make for expressive, impermanent-seeming images that read like thoughts and memories scribbled in a notebook.
