This wild chameleon, shimmering blue is called ‘Upon A Star’ and fans out its bewildering array of outcomes peacock-style.

Watch as I experiment live, starting with a loose plan and working it out from there! Notice the ink spilled, the moment it doesn’t quite work out, the hesitation… 😅 Check the stories for gratuitous close-ups.

I chose these words by @buddywakefield for the December 13th Inkvent as he’d been on my mind and this quote just felt ‘right’ for the day. It’s from his gently devastating poem ‘Flockprinter’ (and if you’ve followed my work for a while, you’ll know I’ve interpreted his work many times before).

————————————-

I’m creating an ink piece every day throughout December, using each of the daily new inks behind the Diamine Inkvent 2022 Calendar windows:

- One take only, for better or for worse!😬

- Ink on paper, no digital faffing

- Originals go on sale in January

- Prints and digital editions will be available

- A portion of all sales to food banks.

when caitlyn siehl said “you were the only one i kneeled before. you made the warrior in me tired.” and when buddy wakefield said “let me praise the greatest good in you, by laying down my weapons, including my shield.” and when billy talent sang “surrenderrrrrr..”

“You’re gone now and I get it. 

I have to know with my lungs what I missed. 

Did you see where the wind went

when it got knocked out of me?

Do you know it was by your side?”
