Jim Dine - Glyptotek Drawings

I've been looking at different artists that I find relates to my work. I've been introduced to the artist Jim Dine, who is a American Pop Art artist. He did a collection of images from Glyptotek, an art museum in Denmark. I like the roughness of his work, nothing is clean and precise which is not the usual for me. I like works of art which approach realism as close as they can. This style is really rough but still has a style that is pulled off within the image, I love the use of dark tones and  high contrast.
