1) Man with a mission

Le Vitrier Parisien

The picture of a 1930's Glazier comes from a book on Old Paris I borrowed from my Mum’s Care-Home to photograph.

The happy glazier is striding purposefully down Rue Cardinale, which is on the South-Bank of the River Seine, level with Isle de Cite.

He carries the glass for the job he’s going to on that beautiful frame (that was probably his Dad's) on his back and his canvas bag of tools and materials (and like as not, his lunch) is slotted into the frame too.

01  DESCENT INTO CHAOS

The double square proportion is stability and the three areas defined by the diagonals are Order, Transition through Chaos to Oblivion

The photograph could almost be a drawing and I will develop it as such.

There are three morepictures yet  to be added to the set . . . . . .

3a) Vision of Spring

PictureRef: NewGreenL.jpg

Ellen must learn to LOOK before before she can hope to SEE

Out of the gnarled crotch of the Old Year, springs new life;

Grey that was green in its time gives forth green again;

Tough and dry that was supple once gives up tender bendable shoots again;

Willow it was before, Willow will it be again.

Meanwhile its sturdy slumbering limbs harbour the green preface of its intent.

One of the Thames's old Willows that have now been surveyed and catalogued for maintainance

3b) Composition

PictureRef: NewGreenCompL.jpg

The detail shows how the composition is based on the Four-Squares CDGH at ground level signifying the Winterworld. 

From the deep central cleft bursts the new Spring Growth. 

All the diagonals associated with the composition form an EXPLOSION of energy from the centre point where also pass the two lines AF, BE that follow the angle of the two branches cradling the new growth.
