This almost never happens and I don’t know where to go from here.

I dreamed this. Very rare to get art from dreams for me. What makes this really unique is that I dreamed this as a tattoo over my heart. I never dream tattoos on myself.

I’m not sure where to go with this.

It was a long process, because the image in my dream was very unclear. In the same way that all my artwork starts as a scribbled tangle of lines, from which I draw forth the image, the tattoo in my dream was a kind of raw mess of ink lines. I knew the shape in the dream, but it did not reach my waking mind. Unspooled  thread left at the bottom of a bag for months.

So, ever so slowly and carefully, I eked out the shape of things. Physically I teased out the shape, instinctively I summoned up the forms, and finally the lines came together on the page.

Whatever this is has come from some weird raw buried part of my code which was written over my heart.

if you enjoy this and other artwork, please consider reblogging

I’d have reblogged for the photoset, but that comment put the cherry on the sundae.

Okay so here’s the lowdown. I found 4 sets of medium format negatives while I was thrift shop hunting a few weeks ago. They were sitting in a box of old vintage photographs in these plastic sleeves, and from what I could tell, they had been taken sometime in the 50’s. So obviously I brought them home, and today finally had them scanned in, and holy wow they are beautiful!!

NOW this is where I need the Internet’s help. I would absolutely love to find the women in these photographs/the photographer who took them. The only info I have is that the negatives were found in a thrift store on Hull St in Richmond, VA. They are medium format, and judging by the style of dress, made in 1940-1950. The owner of the thrift store had no idea where they came from. I’m posting the best/clearest scans of the images, so if y'all could reblog the shit out of this, I’m hoping we can find the owners of these amazing images.

Hello friends!! It’s been a while. There aren’t many updates the it comes to the ladies BUT I did want to add some info that wasn’t with the original post.  1. They were actually transparencies, not negatives, my bad. This means on the strip, there was already a positive image, instead of an inverted one, like on a negative. It’s important because this narrows down the type of film to only slide types. 2. The location is believed to be Dockweiler Beach, Playa Del Ray, CA 3. The approximate year is believed to be 1958 4. Sorry, but at this time prints are NOT available. I’ll keep you informed of if/when they do!

Lyrics in Faroese:

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg Galdramaður festi meg festi meg Trøllabundin djúpt í míni sál í míni sál Í hjartanum logar brennandi bál brennandi bál

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg Galdramaður festi meg festi meg Trøllabundin inn í hjartarót í hjartarót Eyga mítt festist har ið galdramaður stóð

English translation:

Spellbound am I, am I The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me Spellbound deep in my soul, in my soul In my heart burns a smouldering fire, smouldering fire

Spellbound am I, am I The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me Spellbound in my heart’s root, my heart’s root

“She did not fly through the air, but neither did she walk upon the earth. She had a mane like a horse, horns like a deer, a face like a bear, eyes like a polecat; while her body had something of each. And that was the Welwa.

“Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don’t want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.” My art, do not edit nor repost elsewhere without credit.
