The Miquwahkesis Project: Day Nine

1/7/2015

 
The process for the bottom half is completely different than the line taping madness of the top.  Using an acrylic paint marker, I am drawing the details free-hand.  The hard lines of the top are contrasted with the curves I'm creating now - but they are both endlessly weaving in and out.  

There is a bit of fearlessness that I've had to tap into for this project, as my two dimensional design has been adapted to the nooks and crannies of my 3D reality.  From the very beginning I realized that I wouldn't be able to sketch the entire design onto the fox.  Rather, I'd have to trust the process and trust myself to make the creative decisions along the way.  It was quite daunting to begin drawing over all the stage one painting - what if I slipped?  What if I made a poor choice of lines?  I had to choose to be fearless and go for it.  My favourite experiences and works as an artist come from that choice.  It's always good to let go.
