More Roots of Yggdrasil and Free Gift Offer!
Here and some other view of ”Roots” and a close up.
I have worked on the piece from every angle so that each view is as interesting as possible. There is an interesting tension developing from the fact that each tube is the same dimension and does not taper as a tree or blood vessel does. I had to haul it outside to photograph and discovered it barely fits through the door. As I have been generously gifted with a sack of new tubes, I can see a problem developing. This kind of practical problem is a constant bedevilment to me as an artist.
I have done away with the newspaper and flour paste layer entirely and am just using dye rags with white glue. This is quicker and appropriate as I want to keep the tube-like aspect.
I have been given many toilet paper tubes but am on the look out for more. If any readers of this blog donate tubes to me I will give you a free present!
