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.<\/p>\n<p>The final touch was inspired by <a href=\"https:\/\/willmitchell.art\">Will Mitchel<\/a>, 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.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2703 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-3-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Elemental Day by Candace Hunter\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-3-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-3.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2702 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Elemental Day by Candace Hunter\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/candacehunter.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Elemental-Day-2.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fire, Water, Earth, Air.
