day Ten (wow how time flies) M.O.L.A.A. molaaspaingaroo daily love and steem dollar giveaway
today's contest post.
here is an example of what I often do too. Coming across some lines of text somewhere that really speak to me, I'll write them down in my block to always have them.
you can see three examples here today, although only two are credited. The other one must be mine I suppose.
"there's one sad truth in life I've found
while journeying East and West.
The only folks we really wound are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know.
We please the fleeting guest.
and deal full many a thoughtless blow
to those who love us best"
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
1850 - 1919 Author and poet.
This rips my heart out and stomps on it, right in front of my surprised face, going "there, take that"!!
but that'd be little old me
and on the other page,
"I sometimes feel I have nothing to say,
I often want to communicate this"
Damian Hirst (needs no introduction)
What a vapid specimen of a man and artist is our Damien.
But he's rich and I am still right here.
"I often feel I have something to say,
I never want to communicate this"
El bicho (yours truly)
Now that's genius! Even if I have to note it myself :)
And then in Spanish is written
"Estamos aquí para enriquecer, no para enriquecernos"
"We are here to enrich, not to get rich"
which is my philosophy. I think I came out with that line in a chat on skype, and wrote it down to remember it. Maybe it comes from somewhere else, but I think it's mine.
You can see a couple of notes to self too. can be summarised as get your act together
and a few pattern ideas too
the one I put up the other day is very similar to this pattern,
but separated. There are works like the page here. I'll look for a couple
and this ugly fugly
As you see it was on a sheet of heavy gloss foto paper, and it's one of only two that I ever did on that surface. Horrid.
be alright for liquid mediums or brush pens maybe, but for biro, it sucks.
Enough from me for today, don't forget, your work does not have to be visual in nature. Writing is fine and poetry too.
All I ask is that do create something in response to something you see or feel in my sketchbook page.
If you have an already existing work that you think is perfect, well, you only to give a little justification speech and you are fine.
But connect in some way with me and my work please
