Notes: Game on...on the radio...Astros and Angels...Astros 8-3...Thais has done all the scoring for the Angels with two home runs...top of the seventh...welp...I got distracted, diverted, by drawing painting, and following on the on and on of current politics!...but, I have a couple ancient enigma posts waiting, but, will save them for next season!...hopefully, opening day then will have Ohtani on the mound...Fletcher, Trout, Pujols, Calhoun, starting lineup lead, and all the Angels healthy...meanwhile, InkOctober looms, thought is to post the effort for each day, and the usual other adventures...Astros made out...to bottom of seventh...off for a snack, and find something for today's hashtag strada easel effort...Fletch up...

Sun on the Horizon
Notes: Game on...on the radio...Rays and Angels...top of 3rd...Rays 4-1...sigh...Angels were up by one, then three home runs by the Rays...the one run lead for the Angels was like their first lead in 34 innings...short lived...Rays made out...to bottom of 3rd...just two weeks left in the season...the 'handbags' came up again in a comment thread...Ancient Architects did a clip about one of the Gobekli Tepli pillars, the one with three handbag looking motifs on top...a new caption is that they represent three constellations...the handbag loop represents sunrise, and beside each loop is a figure, an animal representing a constellation...oh, Fletcher gets a hit, then Calhoun a home run, all with two outs...Rays 4-3...Pujols up...Pujols with double and scored in first inning...Trout isn't in the line up...bad foot...and, Ohtani out for the rest of the season...knee surgery, two or three month recovery...hmmph...

so, so, I started off a comment about the handbags...seeing this notion as familiar, a glyph representing the sun on the horizon...welp...here's the comment...
quote-me
A 'reasoned maybe' in the three handbags being suns on the horizon on this pillar...I dunno about the Sumerian King's handbags being such...but maybe the Sumerian scenes/vignettes are astronomical dates too...but, that's a shaky reach!...not so shaky with Egyptian scenes, but those don't have handbags...the handbags truly a puzzle!...forget the name, but found are stone artifacts that look just like them at that site in Iran found not long ago...thing to keep in mind, handbags and buckets, with handles, are a universal easily arrived at tool...well, wait, they are used to carry things, water, seeds for sowing...caption I often see for the Sumerian ones is that they hold pollen, which is being shaken on the tree motif by the pine cone motif...the tree thought to be a date palm which, I gather, has to be artificially pollinated when farmed/cultivated...ancients would see in everday activities symbols for their cosmologies, so, a thought is to note a thing for just what it is, and maybe that will make some sense of an enigma...like a wonder is the scorpion, which makes constellation scorpio...on the pillar is a scorpion, maybe a constellation, but, what makes a scorpion special!...did someone make connection between how the stars are arranged, seeing a scorpion, like seeing a face in a cloud?...that doesn't follow...each month needed a name/sign, and then the sign given a group of stars that corresponded to the month...factcheck...I'm not an astronomer/astrologer!...the handbag as sun on the horizon glyph might be so...have to putter about and find sun on the horizon glyphs...Egyptians had the aker lions...sun rising between two lions...and the sun on the horizon, constellations rising over the horizon, is how the ancient astronomers sighted and timed...the horizon was their, I dunno, must be a name for it-like a ruler layed down sideways...there's an Andean site that actually uses a mountain range...☺oh!...puttering about, I found this, which fits in...page connects the Egyptian Aker glyph with the Minoan double ax glyph...too, I see the aker glyph connects to the Egyptian/Sumerian shen glyph, ring and bar glyph, which is often seen being held, carried, much like the bag...related is the ankh glyph, the loop with bar and post, cross like...this often too being held, and much like the pine cone held up to the tree, the ankh is held up to Pharaoh's face...the bar, line, handbag top, is the horizon...the loop, circle, the sun...what's really neat are the Egyptian headrests, a half crescent (like the moon) between the two lions...one's head asleep on the rest becomes the sun/moon on the horizon glyph!

Indeed, the shape of the typical ancient Cretan double axe can be seen as a mirrored copy of the Egyptian “horizon” hieroglyph which also appears to have depicted this arc:

I, I have to fill this out!...too much for one post...for sometime...and time to foray out for a snack...so hot in the daytime I don't stir...nap and read...then at night try to move around!...lol...find a place to watch game...bbk with update...

Gating
Notes: Game on...on the radio...Indians at Angels...top of sixth...Indians 6-0...Angels keep getting wooped...won two from Chicago, then lost one...then home to face Indians, and lost last night...and, no luck tonight...been trying everyday to roll out to a local peak, summit, prominence, or some such, for the # stradaeasel contest...went through two tanks of gasoline...and, it's fun, and maybe tomorrow back at it...last two days I just drew here at home...Maya, my dog, yesterday, and tonight tried to draw Autumn, my grand nieces cat...the spirit of plein air painting/drawing is to paint on site outdoors...here in town just getting to an outdoors site is problematic...one could just sit on a street corner of course, and take in the scenery...but plene air is known for its romantic scenes of California country sides, and that's what one thinks of-someone on an overlook with their easel, painting a Laguna Beach scene...Laguna Beach an origin place for plein air in America...had a dream my old music teacher came around to view my efforts, and he complained, 'why did you drag me here to see these?'...lol...what triggered the dream is I got a reply to a post in a comment section of a channel done by a very professional plein air artist...James Gurney...he also did for Nat Geo an illustration of a Moche sacrifice, which I copy pasted to the blog when going on about canopies...fump...Indians 7-0 top of seventh...the illustration has many of the Moche motifs, and Gurney did his homework to get them right...a headsup to view Guerney's channel came from a friend who introduced me to the stradaeasel contests, this three years back now!...so, a kind of glue and continuity to all this!...thing lacking is I don't have the chops my music teacher hoped for, or I!...but, that being said, few do have professional skills...and that shouldn't deter one from participating with what skills one has!...doing the charcoal drawing, brought back tricks I made up using charcoal sticks...and with these new drawings, I've added a few more...cone, ball, box, are like the basic shapes...and I've thought to use how I can do those with a stick to do the drawings...by example, I can hold a stick in the middle of it, press it down and twirl it...a complete twirl is a ball...if I press one end tight down, and twist the stick, I get a cone...boxes I make just dragging the stick...if I drag it, one end forced down, I get a hard edge, a wash, and a soft edge...to make a small circle, I break a stick down, or use just the end...there are of course all kinds of things I can do with my fingers, stumps, kneaded erasers, and such...but I'd like to keep to the 'stick' look...doing so can make for a very 'clean' drawing...hard to describe, so, so, I need to put the drawings up here in the blog, so, here they are with the progress of 'stickiness'...lol...

| the hard line of the stick at top, the 'wash', then a not so hard line-one stroke...the scratches were a fail to make the gullies and things... |
 |
| the sticks are the downtown towers of LA...I'm thinking cave petroglyphs!...the grid for city streets... |
 |
| the stick twirled to make the sun...hillsides one stroke stick...river stick end... |
 |
| tried to twist stick for canyons on slope, arc for clouds... |
 |
| small stick dragged down to make Back Bay cliffs...edge of stick twisted for foreground plants |
 |
| hard to read...in the middle was path going to hills in distance...and a half moon overhead...thinking 'glyph'...how I can make drawing petroglyph like... |
 |
| beach edge, receding wave forms, cargo ships, and the sun was filling the sky, very bright... |
 |
| on overlook bluff...fence...cliffs/beach...scallop glyph for waves up beach...some Xs for homes, and dark curve for highway...line top right shouldn't be there...thought to indicate horizon... |
 |
| this is all stick!...success... |
 |
| this just two inches big...done with very small sticks...pulled out highlights with kneaded eraser...onward...
hmmph...for me the drawings amount to personal souvenirs...and can evoke the entire afternoon that went into making them...during the long back and forth rides, I think about the scene I'm seeking. listen to music, or the ball game...often, I cant find a view, and get turned around and lost looking...to go out with a pre supposition, is something called 'gating' by Gurney...sortofa if you go to the store looking for roses in particular, your subconscious will guide you to them from the array of flowers displayed...a notion with import to my ancient enigmas pursuit!...more for sometime...Angels down to their last strike...Ward with a two out double...Thais up...K...Indians 7-0...Angels have a 'gating' issue I'd say-lost their focus...

Open To Interpretation
Notes: I've been off in the lists, what I call the youtube comment sections...I've done like whole blog posts in some of them...too much to relate!...Mark Langston has it the Angels never recovered from the loss to the Baltimore Orioles in sixteen innings back right after the All Star break...'tis so...and in truth, the sad and tragic death of Tylar Skaggs has taken something out of the team...they just don't seem to come through in the clutch...over and over, with bases loaded, they can't get any runs across...anyway, I've been loyally listening to the games, but, but diverted by the youtube comment sections!...and just youtube in general!...and now, and now I have another diversion...it's the September challenge for hashtag stradaeasel again!...I've done two charcoals so far, and they are part of a pursuit to go to a mountain top local each day of the contest!...and I've been trying to add video and commentary of the pursuit, much like itchyfeet, onherbike, and feathers do with their youtube blogs!...more on vloging to come!...I'm going to wake up my youtube channel!...it's all fallen in place how to do it, but I need stuff, need to learn stuff, so it'll be a bit before I do a polished vlog post...I'll try to do a few unpolished ones to show the steps I'm going through to make a channel!...anyway, I found a step fret motif on the wrist band of one of the Tula warriors...a marvel!...and tale of a mountain top citadel that had step fret buildings!...so, so, that to post too!...highlights of the days of late have been playing the game 'draw something'...much fun...
