I am excavating some old sketchbooks while cleaning/unloading the new studio; here are some words/phrases I found in my 2000 Sketchbook:
descending day
ceremony of souls
chant
mortal garden
shadow of sounds
the still hour
synagogue of the ear of the corn
unmourning water
beckon
my birthday began in water
This side of the truth
dust of the dead
a girl mad as birds
the guilty dark
possessed by the skies
the sun's tears
the moon's seeds
love broken wide
displaced truth
beneath my life
she walks the dust
pyre
the woman in shades
these are NOT my words, I am trying to cross-reference my book journal to see what book(s) I was reading at this time so that I can give credit to the appropriate author - but in no way am I claiming these are my phrases; I now am smart enough to initial it if it is my writing/original thought and to reference excerpts as I take notes . . .
(Shown is a work I did during this time-period, "Cadence III", oil/watercolor/paper/antique fabric, antique frame, now in the collection of Professor Lisa Rollins of Middle Tennessee State University). About 24" X 18".
