Daily drawing post
I’m going to do a daily drawing and blog post. This will be a continuation of what I started previously. I’m also going to try to generate a paper version of everything I do. This is because I no longer trust the digital world to preserve anything.
Crystallization
“Leave the mind of a lover to its natural movements for twenty-four hours, and this is what you will find. At the salt mines of Salzburg a branch stripped of its leaves by winter is thrown into the abandoned depths of the mine; taken out two or three months later it is covered with brilliant crystals; the smallest twigs, those no stouter than the leg of a sparrow, are arrayed with an infinity of sparkling, dazzling diamonds; it is impossible to recognise the original branch.”
