Connecting and Automatism
I started a drawing last night, an automatic drawing as explained here and here…
I started working on this tiny drawing while thinking and feeling things about relationships. Male/female relationships. Sexual, and soul connections. I just let my hand and my mind dance around on the paper, kind of in a moving meditation while still being fully conscious of what I was doing. So maybe not pure automatism, but something close. I felt warm and fuzzy feelings while I was drawing and reminiscing on experiences. It felt good to draw something out of a feeling love instead of pain for a change. Voila…
It is very small- A5 paper size, which is 8.3 x 5.8 inches. It is pencil and sepia pastel on 125g paper. I will be placing it on ebay in the next few days. Then after that, every week, I will auction at least two drawings for one year. You could think of this as a one year project and this is the first of the one year series. I think I shall call it Automatism…
