The Task Of Our Century 1

John Reynolds is not a painter. When he produces two-dimensional work it is by means of drawing or mark-making, using just about anything except a paintbrush. Pencil, crayon, inks, markers, spray-cans, collage; you name it he uses it. He is particularly fond of oil stick because it gives the kind of tentative, almost clunky, line that he likes. But don’t be fooled by what might appear to be the artlessness of his marks.
