Black Walnut grid 

Nov 2nd thru Nov 6th

Black Walnut on cotton rag paper on shaped metal grid

time assemblage/collaborative with Nature

I started this piece with the 10/22 photo sketch and decided when putting some wood/twigs from lawn Fall-ings this past week to take image two and to continue a progression work through for nine shots along with the expanding on contracting times this cross quarter and its’ astrological/astronomical context...

fire pit four

fire pit five

fire pit six

fire pit seven

fire pit eight

tomorrow I'll post the last shot and the following day a conclusion with the 9 photo sketches...

~am holding with "a conclusion" for now as the wind (Air) & rain (Water) are moving in and the fire pit is too windy & wet to initiate the Fire element with the piece today~

please stay tuned and toned, enThanks...

this Nature progression is a piece I'm photo journaling. I didn't participate with 

the selection or the placement of the mattress nor the dispersing of the leaves, twigs, & etc....

I've been calling it, "leaved mattress grid"...
~ inate orders and patterns occurring with Nature ~

color differences relate to atmospheric conditions colors of the days. and

with the Fall winds the objects shift a lot on the grid of the fairly flat mattress 

creating varying visual dramas...

fire pit three was shot midday when the bright Sun light shown through the Yellow and Red Fall foliage. with the Mongolian tribal Tuvan peoples when the Sun shines through the clouds at dawn and through the trees at noon the light becomes significantly different. this light is referred to by the Tuvan as huun huur tu, meaning Sunbeams, literally "Sun propeller"... I discovered this meaning when listening to the musical group Huun Huur Tu who play the traditional folk music of the Tuvan. create the opportunity for yourself to listen, see them in concert 

or at dawn or midday when the huun huur tu appears…
