Explanation of the process that I went through to create the drawings posted.
I started with 8 titles. Awareness, acceptance, control, earth, emotional, energy, relationships, meyuse, and 8 blank sheets of paper. I randomly chose a word without looking at it and proceeded to do an automatic drawing on the first sheet of paper. I continued to choose a word and went to the next sheet of paper and so on and so on. After 8 drawings were finished that had 8 words connected to them, I looked at what words were linked to what painting. That is the first drawing on the top left corner. At a future date when I was at the studio, I took the first drawing and tacked it on my board and referred to it to do the second drawing, but also in a very automatic way. That one you'll find in the upper right corner. After the two were finished I set them aside for a few weeks, maybe a month. I went back to the studio and tacked up 8 more blank sheets of paper and again randomly chose one of the same words that I used in the original 8 drawings. Again without looking at the coresponding words until I completed all 8 drawings. Nothing struck me until I brought the last 8 drawings home and compared them to the original 8 drawings. Interesting how similar they are in design, feeling, etc. Hmmmmmmmm
