No more calling

"No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone,  no more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden"

I shall call her Squishy and she shall be mine, she shall be my Squishy

Experimenting with drawing on top of the ink.. really like the fluidity within the image. I also like how its all contained in one big ink splodge.

Float

Experimenting with putting the ink down first and then drawing post ink! I'm really pleased with the results and am definitely going to work like this again. There's a real fluidity to them that brings back the essence of ethereal-ness! I quite like the loose ink border also...

These images were inspired by the lyric (from Blinding by Florence + the machine):

Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state

A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake

No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber

Until I realise that it was you who held me under

Cosmic love and Blinding

Development work for my current project...  The top image was inspired by the lyric from Blinding - Florence + the machine:

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind.

The bottom one was inspired by the song Blinding by Florence + the machine. It is about someone who has lost their lover and can't accept it. 

Thinking of adding some sort of subtle colour to the top one... maybe in water colour or ink.


Think I need to make my imagery more ethereal coz that's kinda my thing now.. so going to start the next images by putting down the ink first then drawing into it. This should loosen the drawing up a bit.
