Maybe Forward

Hmmn, this is big. Well at least there is something covering the whole surface. The thing is I never thought beyond the lines or paths as I call them now. Never "saw" anything more. Hmmn. And I can't paint. Hmmn. Forget painting. Just keep rubbing and smudging. And adding charcoal.

Where am I going now?

The great thing about documenting work in progress is that I can see it on the computer, and rotate it, flip it, reverse it, layer it. All great ways to help me see what is working, what isn't and where it wants to go. Started to play with this image below, a composite, that really help me see possibilities.

    I keep coming back to view your marks. They call to me and whisper of playing to be done...turn this one, flip that one, move this one over here and that one over there, stand back and view the new story...listen to the new whispers...then do it all again. What magical fun you are having. Thank you so, so much for sharing these with us.

      Thanks Jennifer for your lovely words. Some days I wish they would whisper a bit louder.

    Looks like a lot of pregnant bellies to me, dripping with nausea and shaded with fatigue.

      I hadn't thought of the shapes like that Tracy, I was worried that they might be perceived as fat worms, then I decided that was OK ,worms make for great compost.
