"Consuming Death" work in progress (charcoal and conte)
Have been feeling an urgency to draw. The image is from a photo originally taken for sculpture. The texture of my hair struck me, and I wanted to exploit those marks. While doing so, I realized a bird was forming. It seemed like a vulture, but I wasn't sure. I went over to my computer and looked up vulture images,found an image and it looked just like the image I had drawn. I realized, that a vulture is a symbol of "consuming death". I have been consumed by this "death" thing for 4 plus years now. Maybe the vulture is a good sign.
Hey Teresa,
ReplyDeleteThat drawing is so moving...the vulture is a good sign isn't it...wow, beautiful...
Looks like you're getting right into it, now!
ReplyDeleteSo, T - you good and all? I know the mentor thing is tough. You'll work it through, though; I know how savvy you are. I thought I should remind you, however - just in case you forgot ;)
See if you can't contact Gillian again about her blog invite. I asked her to try it a couple of times on my email until the invite came through, since it didn't work initially.
I'm gonna follow you now. Unless you'd rather I stalk you, so you can tell all your friends you have a stalker. Hee hee. Miss you!
Wow A stalker!!!! Now that IS intriguing..Now ..get to work! :-)
