Work Gently | Warmup
-She/Her-
Lyrics: Ananke / I HAVENT WRITTEN THIS ONE YET BUT I'LL THINK OF SOMETHING - The Narcissist Cookbook
A lil bit about this piece- I don't normally talk about my warmups like this but I'm trying something new, lol.
The cougar is my sona, but so is the sheep the haunch belongs to. The cougar represents my true self, the self I want to be. The sheep represents my work self, the one I present to the world as a business owner, as an artist.
The song is about The Work. About creativity. About perfectionism. About the inability to work gently.
"Long and late into each consecutive night. She who forgets to stretch, and eat, and hydrate"
"God of compulsion. God of Necessity. Patron saint of those who cannot work gently"
Basically this piece is me, destroying the parts of myself I've been forced to create to survive. How I've been forced to be a business owner. To turn my art into labor.
How I must keep a strict schedule and allow myself no wiggle room so that it keeps working. So I can keep paying my stupid bills.
And how it'd be so much easier to just be an animal; with a rich, hot slab of meat all to herself.

This is really neat
the composition is really striking and the off center, fading into abstract blends on the left side makes for a really striking look. makes it feel both slightly surreal and almost like, a canid spotting of an animal in the wild.
Plus her just, absolute glare into the viewer is a very nice touch

Your warmups are just so darn cool. And I'm surprised the title and art alone was enough for me to interpret it!
I wish work didn't consume us, and we could feast on the spare energy as our true selves. It must be extra hard when the work itself is a corrupted version of what should be an enjoyable hobby.
