"Total Eclipse on the Chart (Turning Brown, Sprite Skies)"

*with apologies to Bonnie Tyler

MEAT-EORIC DISTURBANCES APPROACHETH!

Saluting this spring's vernal equinox and the (just under) three week countdown to April 8th's once-in-a-lifetime total solar eclipse, of which I'll be *slightly* off the path of visibility.

12 in. x 9 in. black mounted canvas with vintage imagery (the corner pixie from 1988’s “Willow”), marker, acrylic tube paints, Mod Podge sealant

“For ancient Persians, an eclipse of the sun was considered to be prank by a peri. The peri were winged, fairy-like spirits that could be somewhat unpredictable, being anywhere from generous and helpful to humans to mischievous and even evil in intent. When an eclipse transpired, it was believed to be a peri covering, blotting out, or darkening the sun for fun.” (source)
