Legacy of Darkness is finally real!
Well, the world has been watching this one patiently for a while. But here it is. Legacy of Darkness is finally woven!! 🤘
I got the first production pictures today and I could not be happier with how it came out. The scarlet hits exactly the way I hoped it would, and the black and grey have way more depth in the actual wool than the digital renders ever showed.
For anyone who missed some of the earlier discussion, the 70-thread black field references Black Sabbath’s 1970 debut and the 13-thread scarlet bars represent Ozzy’s 13 solo studio albums.
One of my favorite descriptions came from a weaver who saw the design and said the way the black and grey move in and out through the sett reminded her of the bass in heavy metal. I loved that because so much of what I was trying to capture was the feeling of the music, not just colors associated with Ozzy or Sabbath. Seeing it in actual wool, I think that comes through even more.
You guys have watched this thing develop for months. Now it’s real cloth. 🔥🤘
