My initial thought was about waking up in a strange place: ....... the Bath Tub!
So I climbed in and took some photos. Mmmm.. not very interesting so I imagined more color with Harlequin stockings so I put on thermal underwear and imagined the patterns. I also thought of this title as a dream. My white-tiled bathroom would have to transfer elsewhere and bring in night-time, candles and lanterns. Halloween derives from Hallowed Evening or Holy Evening and as kids this meant Spirits, Mischief and Duck Apple Night. Maybe involve these as well?
I started an acrylic preparation to paint the sides and make an inky space with Viridian Green, Alizarin and Pthalo Blue, but as the paint ran out a dynamic image like a nebulous star cluster was left.
Space, Black Holes? Where could I go with this?
To Be Continued .........
ONE THING I KNOW... YOU’RE ONE OF THE BEST ARTISTS EVER..... YOU’RE GOING TO-SURPRISE US ALL!!!
Interesting. The concept you painted makes me thing of looking up at the sky from the bottom of a well or cave.
It's going to be awesome, our thought would have to catch up with your final piece...
I can’t wait to see what you come up with!!
I'm in my bathtub now, dressed in the harlequin's uniform. There's a carved pumpkin below with it's 3 teeth becoming Orion's Belt. the rest of that figure is emerging, too.
Memories of a British Halloween are floating by .......
COOL!!
Orion is my favorite constellation! I've always been awed by the symmetry of the belt. You're onto something! I'm intriqued...
