photoshopping
After realising that I had accidentally drawn these with the non water-proof pen and so i couldnt use aquarells to colour them in, I decided to have a bash at colouring in Photoshop.
This first one is a line from a bjork song

This one is the evil snow queen from Narnia, drawn long before the movie came out! The snowflakes are filled in with a mosaic of photographs of real snowflakes.

Autolycus By Midnight
felt tip pen on paper

Autolycus by Midnight
Forgetting sleep , as finding faith in places
Grander than an adult’s eye can go,
And slow! No sleeper’s ear could hear her so
Creeping down the dark familiar spaces,
Unshod ; uncertain ;knowing and wanting still
Setting out on tipping toes the clinging cold
The tabled bier, the black, forbidding fold
Dancing like a nightcoat’s flapping frill;
To will; to snap unseen the silver thread
That holds her hanging hand; and now
With ruby-tasting sweets to sneak to bed,
Darker than the dusklight, first fruits of sin
Fat, fallen grapes too heavy for the bough,
Awaiting teeth that break their supple skin.

And slow! No sleeper’s ear could hear her so
Creeping down the dark familiar spaces,
Unshod ; uncertain ;knowing and wanting still
Setting out on tipping toes the clinging cold
The tabled bier, the black, forbidding fold
Dancing like a nightcoat’s flapping frill;
To will; to snap unseen the silver thread
That holds her hanging hand; and now
With ruby-tasting sweets to sneak to bed,
