The development of phase 10 Arches.

Phase 10 – Background & Forward Motion

The final phase of 'Race Of Souls' developed the background setting for the chariots. The Archways shown are the real arches from the back of the original Circus in Jerash and would have been the original start gates for the Chariots. The drawing shows four of the six archways in the circus and once drawn in they created the depth perspective for the overall drawing.

The difficulty was establishing the position of some of the stones, for which I had no reference material, some of the original stones were removed over the last 2000 years and I had to rebuild areas that I could only see existed due to the remaining positions of the odd stone.

The archways function was also to create and promote the illusion of forward motion by the chariots, which is why the Archways are not in sharp focus.

The drawing has been purchased by a private collector based in England. The professional archival scan of the original drawing will be available to view online by the 1st of June.
