Success Is Measured This Way
Dave Scott, 2006



This is an ongoing series of drawings I have been working on for some time. If one uses conventional drawing techniques, the artist uses their body to imprint ideas onto the drawing surface. I am not interested in this type of expression. Instead of drawing in this manner, I place the drawing materials in a public space and allow the environment itself to create the drawing.

As much as possible, my own ego is left out of the creative process and the end results are not tampered with in any manner.

Only three choices are made:

1. What drawing materials do I use?
2. Where do I place them?
3. And for how long?

The drawings become a record of time and place. The latent image on the paper is developed by the activities within the environment such as traffic flow, weather and other local events.
