Day 10

April 19, 2007 by Nicholas Hedges

Finished priming the canvas and then painted a layer of Paynes Grey on top. Over this I’ll rub some white before working in the graphite powder. Into this I’ll then scratch the outlines of Loggan’s 1675 map which I will attempt to project on top.

I also did another walk following the same route and this time crossed out the words that were no longer appropriate (for example, objects that were no longer visible). As I did this, I decided to add new words that were appropriate to today.


The new list of words now reads:
voices
the sun
engine starts
Leffe
zebra crossing
waiting
boarded windows
remnants of posters
French market
a man on a bike
a dog being walked
all routes
missing letters
pencilled ‘e’
blue car
squeaking brakes
a woman carries a package
red lights
weeping willows
green mound
red man
cyclists wait
open window
Guinness Time
green man
20 zone
pull pull
discarded bottles
old confetti
cigarette butts
a man in sunglasses
crooked shadows
fire extinguishers
discarded blanket
weeds in pots
a man eats
the sun
a flag hangs
empty racks
doorbells
dirty water
orange jackets
taxi

cementing pavement
a broom
plastic bottle
two men in ties
pile of sand
gravel
weir
stone tower

danger – high voltage
