A Large Disappointed Audience

Image
Here is a full view of A Large Disappointed Audience, a drawing in honor of the Sabian Symbol for '28 Aries.' In his book, The Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Dr. Marc Edmund Jones gives this degree as... ...the transiency of the rewards in a life taken too literally and narrowly in its more superficial terms. Implicit in the reversed symbolism is the disillusionment that comes when an individual learns that he cannot depend on the applause of his fellows, or make the momentary mood of the masses any proper guide for the values he should pursue. There is here the call to a selfhood which can rest secure in its own creative potentiality, catering to nothing exterior to itself. The keyword is: DISJUNCTION... positive manifestation: complete spiritual independence; negative/unconscious/shadow side: a destructive assimilation of the self to every defeat or frustration of human kind.

Actually, the entire sign of Capricorn is said to be a labyrinth, all 30 degrees of the mer-goat's sign. Unscene World is an imprint I began in 1996 as black paper took over my drafting table and celestial themes became prominent...and I've never, as they say, looked back! They also say that black paper gives depth and a spiritual quality you cannot achieve on white or light paper, and I must agree with them. Here's an example of my early black paper art, Timeless Path , a drawing which won a Merit Award at one of the Olympic Games art venues in Atlanta, GA, summer 1996. Timeless Path is appr 18"x24" (and was sold before the exhibition opened!) but these days my renderings are small enough to fit a scanner bed so that they may be easily publish...

Golden Chanterelles , drawing by Jude Cowell 2008. Announcing: Art images are now on display within the Jude Cowell Art Boutique @zazzle.com and are suitable as Wall Posters. One image, a drawing titled, The Orator , is from Cosmic Persona Designs , a collection of drawings for viewers over the 17+ age range because some of the images may involve what I call Chiffonery Art that is sometimes tagged as "sexy-fun." There are no photos at all. Only Art. Drawings on paper. Quite harmless really.
