Barleycorn

Il motivo barleycorn viene tessuto utlizzando l'omonima speciale armatura. Si tratta di un motivo assai simile a quello del bell hopsack, con la differenza che qui il motivo base si sviluppa su sei fili di ordito, mentre la i fili sono otto.

BARLEYCORN TRiPLETS

There were three men came out of the West Three kings both great and high And they have sworn a solemn oath John Mastodon must die.

They took a tank and ran him down With bullets in his head And they have sworn a solemn oath John Mastodon was dead

But when the Spring came kindly on And showers began to fall John Mastodon got up again And did surprise them all...

#john mastodon #really it's John Barleycorn barely rewritten #If anyone would like to take a crack at the rest of it they are welcome

ÞÆS OFEREODE ÞISSES SWA MÆG

(that was overcome. so too may this.) from Deor, old english poem, c. 9th century.

new riso design! John Barleycorn is a folkloric figure considered the embodiment of the wheat harvest, and the subject of the English and Scottish folk song that describes the cyclical nature of his birth, death, and processing into bread and ale each year. this one was about the comfort in the constancy of things. the world could end. but the wheat field rises anew. the year turns around again.

#i know it looks like 'pisses' i KNOW! but it is not that. #i adjusted the translation slightly for clarity without context #i'm working my socks off to get work done for MCM London at the end of this month despite also travelling. some things were not Timed Well #sat in airbnbs and youth hostels and on trains tryna get work done man im struggling lol 50 thousand unanswered messages IM SORRY!!! #the actual words in the image are from john tams though because that song slaps i love you snow falls/the year turns around again #english folklore #british folklore #john barleycorn #lottieart

i lied this is my day-after-christmas present to you all. the balmy con

....i should actually get one of my sskies captains over to eleutheria sometime

#slight inspiration from moonstruck stormy's design. but also in the end the influence turned out to be *very* slight #sunless skies #failbetter games #actually im putting this in the fl tag too because it involves my thoughts for curator clothes #fallen london #art #digital art #drawing #digital drawing #anyway i've always imagined barleycorn as some form of black + red/brown. but i only today realised i could make its eyes so.. halved-like #the fact that what it's wearing turned out apron-like is honestly mostly a coincidence #only so many ways to design curator clothes without unwanted excess clipping of wing membranes...... #or just wrapping them in a blanket

thinking about (un)beheading at the apotheosis of a characters journey

#yes i know textually the connection is a stretch listen i saw the movie once and im only a little ways into the poem. #i just think about beheadings a lot. i think about this idea a lot. #dungeon meshi spoilers #dunmeshi #the green knight #i only turned rbs off because i got self conches but i have way more elaborate thoughts....might draw something about it #in a similar note thinking things about john barleycorn and falin

My final entry (I’m @moonstruck-stormy ) for the Holiday Contest

I thought about what would Mr Barleycorn give as a totally not charity present and thought an empty box would be funny.

The most precisely measured and crafted box in existence was made. In scientific notation when needed and with agreeable significant figures.

It’s the math bat it’s a must

Thanks @house-of-mirrors for a second eye because Christmas brain be making me act unwise
