I Call My Guides

Today making art involved staying in my pyjamas, testing out my oral diffusion technique on the bathroom tiles, figuring out that apparently there's a physics link between diffusing fixative and flying a plane, waiting for thing after thing to dry, looking up my Thesaurus and casting Runes.

I started with an image transfer using one of my own Hare photos. Whilst that was drying, I got my Conté crayons out and used another of my photos as a guide to create the larger Hare face. Whilst the fixative was drying, I  created the words and collaged them, along with the Hare. I coloured and blended using a mix of Conté crayons, pastels, watercolour Graphitint pencils, ink and art markers. I suck at lettering, but it's decades since I tried to do it :)

Also today - that moment when you pour water onto your green tea bag and discover it has a hole in it. Then you remember that you purloined the tea strainer for use with chemicals in the art room - because no-one ever needs the tea strainer....

I Call My Guides

From the Runes I call Inguz. Please open the doors to progress and freedom, and bestow the power of life and creativity. I call Hare, Harbinger of Inspired Madness, for enthusiasm, unconventionality and rebelliousness.
