Path Toward the Moon

 

Path Toward the Moon

Took an imagined walk 

in an invented forest 

heading toward the moon.

 

Sketch loosely initiated by old photo reference and then allowed to wander until the page was filled.

Me

 Me

Somewhere in the middle 

of nowhere 

searching for a memory.

 

Nowhere.

Nowhere

 

Nowhere

 

Looking for nowhere 

almost all the time. 

See it out there 

in the foggy corners 

of my mind.

 

Sketching more from memory than the old photo initiating the random lines.

looking back after

should have happened 

a long time before.
