Bob Dylan Art Description
Whilst he may be most recognised for his outstanding contribution to music, Bob Dylan has also been a committed visual artist for over forty years. 'The Drawn Blank Series’ was first exhibited to the public in 2007, to immense critical acclaim with a publishing programme of limited edition graphics commencing in 2008. This publishing programme enables a wider audience to appreciate the skill and imagination not only of Dylan the artist, but also of Dylan the man.
“In Bob Dylan’s extraordinary collection of paintings, we are given insight into the expressive, unvarnished way this artist approaches the world and reminded he is that rare person who can move effortlessly between music, word, ink and paint…. Yet again and again, he reflects life back to us with a truth and simplicity that defy words.
“His brush strokes are like his voice, straightforward, rough, occasionally fragile, but always intent on illustrating the treads of human experience. Seemingly unworried about how something looks, he’s not after artistic perfection but something larger, a moment, a feeling. The effect is enthralling. ”
- Marisha Pessl, 2008

In 1974, Dylan spent two seminal months studying art with Ashcan School tutor Norman Raeben, who philosophised the importance of 'perceptual honesty' - painting life as it as seen, not imagined.
Dylan says of this time: "He put my mind and my hand and my eye together, in a way that allowed me to do consciously what I unconsciously felt."
— Products shown: Bicycle (2018), Motel Pool (2018) and Man On A Bridge (2018).

“He riffs with colour across the same simple black-and-white sketches the way he plays songs in concert, sometimes making subtle changes, other times brutally overhauling them.” - Marisha Pessl. bit.ly/CastleFineArtBobDylan
A new book by photographer David Kramer is a remarkable photo essay about Bob Dylan, capturing the artist’s story as well as the cultural landscape of the time. http://bit.ly/2MrtT8O
“What first strikes us in Dylan’s drawings is the simplicity of the rendering...Yet on closer scrutiny, one quickly realises that this indefatigable worker of artistic spaces, this attentive observer of his surroundings, finds in this new way of saying a powerful motor for catalysing his emotions, his extreme sensitivity and concentration.” Diana Widmaier Picasso
Here are three different versions of ‘Sunflowers’. We can’t decide which one is our favourite. How about you?

I love the painting I just saw momentarily but want to see more. Then I can tell you what I like about it. I have to study the paintings before I do a genuine critique.
I love every single one! I was not aware if his talent! All paintings are from an era I love.
