1)Subject Matter. What is happening in this drawing? What do you see?
I see a young lass, washing nothing in particular. She is doing this willingly but still does not like it. Although she does not like it, she is subconsciously enjoying it. Not happy joy, but calm joy. It brings comfort, those same rhythmical movements of scrubbing, she is not aware of it. Her mind has wondered to another place. She is thinking of situation, a tense and problematic situation. She is replaying the events, images play slowly while she thinks, ponders, analyzes it.
She is almost done scrubbing, but she continues, and ponders some more.
