time

For the  TAW challenge  this week: time.

"Hourglass".

This was a bit of an experiment. The idea was to make an hourglass in
which the paint ran down through a narrow opening and spread across
the paper. I first made a relief of paper with the two side triangles a bit
higher. Then I placed the whole upright and ran thin paint from above
over the pre-wetted paper, first the red, then the black.
The end result got a few digital additions.  12,5 x 16 cm.

the road not taken

For the   SPA challenge  this week: travel

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

A happy new year to everyone!


For some years now I have been wondering about mid-December whether I
will do a 365 project by posting a small piece of art every day on my blog.
Anyway, this is number 1, I'm not sure about every day .. :)
