CORNUCOPIA


Detail of "Cornucopia" by Troy's Work Table. Carport chalking for Friday 13 November 2015.

Charcoal, sidewalk chalk.

Cornucopia. Horn of plenty. Trumpets of war. The four horses of the apocalypse—famine, war, pestilence, death. The monsters of Goya. The void. Strange fruits. The upcoming holiday of Thanksgiving. Unharvested crops rotting in the fields.

There were numerous weird influences on this creature, but the most prominent was its sibling creature, the Autumnal Walker.

And the spots of moisture and dark concrete, as well as the chalk shadows of prior pieces in the background, just add to the texture of the piece's "canvas."
