Progress on Patreon and also a secret

So, I added an “About” video on my patreon site.

“About” Video on Patreon Site

I’m also writing out my second draft. I explain my process in this here video.

Ok, I should explain exactly what I’m doing. First I hunt around for these yellow rocks I find all over the place. I really like the colour they make, almost like a mustard yellow. I pulverize them down using a mortar and pestle. I grind them down further using glass mortar and a granite tablet. I then find some bone from moose, where I’ll put them in a tin box and reduce the amount of oxygen in it then put it in a fire. This is to make charcoal from bone. Then I’ll pulverize that down and then grind it down using the same technique I used for the yellow rocks. The charred moose bone will make black. I’ll then prepare a rigid board and put hide glue on it then true gesso. 11 layers of true gesso. Then I’ll mix egg yolk with the yellow and paint the rigid board yellow. Then I’ll use charred moose bone and paint indigenous Mi’kmaq symbols mixed with a QR code. The QR code is a link that will go to a film I’m making…this film. The film will be a story, this story ok….I can’t say anymore about what that story is. You can have full access to the story and the behind the scenes process of what exactly I’m making. But, I can’t just share it. I don’t even want to share on patreon but the film will cost money to make. So I need your help. What I can say is that this art project is breaking new ground. Nothing like this has been done before, at least not as far as I can tell. What I’m planning is wild.
