Aquarius - Mystical Days Portal - For the Mustangs! Post 1

This is the sketch for February - Aquarius that I should have started during the New Moon... January 29th

but I was sick as a dawg with a bioweapon flu that had me completely down for 2 weeks and now I have to build myself back up - I am age 62 and so stuff like that wipes me out!I don't think that living just north of an oil refinery - Suncor which belches out toxic chemicals relentlessly into the air at night - and the inundation of chemtrails helped me stay well or get well. Oh well.

I did start thinking about this piece, during the New Moon, in keeping with my promise to follow the moon cycles consciously... and yesterday I decided what I am going to do for February (Aquarius) and yesterday I printed the horse drawings out at Office Depot at 4" x 4" so I can project them with my handy dandy Artograph projector onto the Gelli Plate printed pages I gathered during the Mystical Days Portal for February. These are the 9" x 12" monoprints I gathered that will make up the Horse in the Aquarius painting...

While I was sick, I used my graphire tablet and GIMP to trace some horses... I actually have enough for the next 7-8 months if I want.

Here they are: The first or 2nd is the one I am going to use for February - I am going to make his mane and tail be wild with static electricity.

My husband is an Aquarius and he is so typical! He is an electrician and he has 2 huge fish tanks and he loves dogs and he loves clouds. He is such a representation of Aquarius besides being genius level mentally. I will try to portray these characteristics in the Aquarius Horse painting.

This is the one I am planning to use for February - for Aquarius but I might use the opposite:

And then I plan on a huge Anvil Cloud above with Lightning and a lake behind - and the Constellation for Aquarius, the Water Bearer.

I also drew up another bunch of horse drawings for future works...and printed them yesterday so I can be a few months ahead.

This could be Pisces - 2 Horses going in opposite directions - but really "neck scratching" which is a thing horses do with each other when they are contented and happy. Not very Piscean, really.

This one...I like - all the legs seem in proportion -

This could be Gemini - although I don't see one of the legs which is irksome. I might have to discard this one.

this one - I like...

This is another that might work for Gemini or Pisces - Pisces people seem to have 2 parts that don't know each other...I might need a totally different image to represent this.

This one is slightly comical but I liked how all his legs and body are fully defined - once I get into the the collage aspect that seems to be what works best.
