Today’s drawing/watercolor is using yesterday’s run data, only this time I didn’t include the actual metrics as elements of the piece. I’m interested in the numbers as a typographical/compositional element, and I’m not sure how I feel about the piece without them yet.

Today’s enso that lives in the soap box.
Project 45
Today’s enso from the soap box series.
Project 44
This week’s 10 origami cranes. Crane tally is 57.
Project 43
Today’s post run drawing. This one measures 15cm x 10.5cm (just like yesterday’s swimming drawing).
Project 42
Today’s drawing/watercolor. I’m thinking about my swim early this morning.
Project 41
Today’s drawing of my run. I think it’s getting closer to what I’m looking for than yesterday’s drawing, but I’m not sure about how the various elements relate to each other. It does help that this run was a loop; the previous run was point to point, and I think that’s part of what made yesterday’s drawing awkward.
Project 40
While I don’t think this piece is really successful, it’s the first time I’ve been able to put together a lot of things I’ve wanted to deal with. I’ve wanted to integrate cycling and running into my work for years, but didn’t know how. In this piece, I’m using as reference the GPS metrics from a run, the map of the route, and a grid. The scale of the piece doesn’t feel quite right; the elements feel dwarfed by its size. After next run, I’ll try this again on a smaller surface.
Project 39
Today’s enso in the soap box series.
Project 38
I’m continuing this enso series working with the colors I chose yesterday: Ultramarine, Alizarin Crimson, and Quinacridone Gold. The various mixtures these three colors make remind me alternatively of bruising and of wine stains.
Here is the soap box this series lives in:
