I have come to drag you out of yourself and take you into my heart. I have come to bring out the beauty you never knew you had, and lift you like a prayer to the sky.

~Rumi

First Child. Drawn from life at Chingford lifedrawing club. It was a real privilege to draw Pauline who was pregnant and didn't have long to wait before her first child :)

Charcoal and pastel expressive figurative drawing from Chingford life drawing last night. Emilie modelled for us and produced some superb poses throughout the night. I was using compressed charcoal and Rembrandt pastels on newsprint paper.

“Late, by myself, in the boat of myself, no light and no land anywhere, cloud cover thick. I try to stay just above the surface, yet I’m already under and living within the ocean. ~Rumi

I have been having vivid dreams so I decided to read, “The Mythic Imagination” by Stephen Larsen. This took me down a rabbit hole of exploring women surrealist painters which has been thrilling. I’ve always loved surrealism, expressionism, intuitive art, narrative painting etc. I am also re-reading “ The Essential Rumi”. So above is a quote from a Rumi poem that I paired with my latest intuitive sketch. I thought the quote went very well with my imagery.

Cold comes and the water starts freezing until it begins to crack.

The ducks fly of to warmer places with a quack, quack, quack.

As the waters thaw in the sunshine of spring and the new seeds crack.

The ducks fly back to the waters edge with a quack, quack, quack.

Mates are found, eggs are laid and begin to hatch with a crack.

Noisy chirping can be heard on the water until the ducklings learn to quack, quack, quack.

Then once again

Cold comes and the water starts freezing until it begins to crack.

The ducks fly of to warmer places with a quack, quack, quack.

Somehow I had to give

it a try.

I do not know why!

Angel or Demon?,

who really knows?

The question here

is super imposed.

Which one is it?

How do you know?

Which creature is which?

we may never really know.

I suppose.

A balaclava is the only thing that I could think of that will remove all facial features but the mouth and eyes, naturally.

I would have used Photoshop to put rings around the eyes, but then the matter is focused on the photoshop work somewhat.

This is for my University Art work :)
