My Thoughts on the Work
I built Elemental Day from inspiration after I built Elemental Night. I wanted to build a second piece about Elemental forces. I asked for help from my Muse, and my Muse delivered. I built Elemental Night and Elemental Day in tandem. The work flowed beautifully until the end. As so often happens, the work on both felt incomplete. I looked at them and sat with them. Then, I got what I needed.
The final touch was inspired by Will Mitchel, who suggested a technique for looking at my work differently. That made all the difference. With his help, I saw the last lines I needed to see, the elemental line that connects Elemental Night with Elemental Day.
