The task for this one step of many more to come in the process takes roughly six hours to complete. At the beginning it feels ritualistic as I gently remove the small box from one of the cherry wood drawers of my desk. A suitable sensation for the subject that will begin to live here for awhile. Setting down the little black and white box and opening it up to reveal only five small capped plastic and metal tubes, each a basic primary, except for one white and one black. Now dabbing various colors into one of the small glass bowls that I use, I begin to softly swirl them, blend them to create a new palette. Its been quite some time since using these skills, so as I begin brushing on swaths of tone onto the board, I feel trepidation and nervousness. This is when the stress mildly sets in as I begin to paint dusky brooding shades, creating what will soon be a cosmic goddess in a cloak of feathers.
