Doug Crocco, The Crow’s Foot / The Arrival of Aquarius, 2007, color pencil on paper, 40 x 32 inches

The crow's foot is the old sign — the mark of the herald, the print left at the edge of something arriving. Aquarius is the age that was supposed to be arriving for most of a century.

Saturated past the natural, the drawing sits at the moment before the change rather than after it. This series is entirely built of those moments: the last instant of one state, the first of whatever follows.
