Charlie Roberts’ figurative drawings are inspired by everyday life, often beautiful young women in various activities–painting, playing tennis, skating with a gigantic ghetto-blaster. At the same time they lead your thoughts to Matisse’s dancers–Roberts’ recognisable female figures are rendered with soft curves in bright colours on a pattern or monochrome background. A primitive modeling assimilates within a tight line that draws the women’s contour and creates a seductive and distorted realism.
