1999 - 2007

Drawings

For all their mystery and even ominous surreality there is an antic spirit to these drawings. In fact, in more than a few of his rough-hewn but detailed charcoals, Bailin sets up man (and woman) as the fall guy for nature's own slapstick brand of humors.

Statement

These drawings actually represent both a series of drawings entitled Prophets produced for my exhibition at the Arkansas Arts Center in 2000, and drawings created for several exhibitions at Koplin Del Rio Gallery, then located in Culver City, CA, during the early 2000s. Common to all of the drawings is the exploration of metaphysical situations.
