Not sure exactly how this idea came to my head but I think I was finishing my usual 5k run, in the mud, not feeling particularly fit, also not feeling angry or depressed or very much focused on something. Just looking around, trying not to fall down from the mud. But I think I was thinking about the wisdom we gain with aging and the idea of the Crone in “look at my Ugly face” book and the wisdom she once represented, which was later replaced by patriarchal, catholic ugly wrinkled witch identity. And it suddenly hit me that since I am working on a triptich about female emotions and experience, I can show the various life stages: The Virgin(the teenager), the Mother(the multiple hands goddess inspired by Hindu Durga) and the Crone\/The Wise One. SO currently working on some sketches, the Virgin proving the easiest to depict so far as I want multiple figures. I want them to be awkward and unrealistically elongated with limbs they can’t really control and faces covered by their hair. They are so vivid in my mind, therefore super easy to transport onto tracing paper. I am still unsure of the drawing technique so don’t want to put them directly onto the fridge door yet. The mother, with multiple hands, the sketch is not satisfying yet and the Crone paint is still drying. I want the Crone to just be the wrinkled face. Also, listening to Leila Arab, discovered throught Bjorks booklet from 2003<\/p>\n\n\n\n
