Just a few more pages, my friends, just a few more pages. Just a few more days, just a few more days. I think it might be time to post more up to date images from maybe one of the moleskine sketchbooks again. The last one hundred pages might have been too predictable or too abstract for some visitors. Many of them decided not to come back. It is my fault as well, of course. SOme of the drawings are drawings because they are not very well translatable into written language, this is why they are drawings in the first place. But I just should have not expected for the visitors to come here again and again and again to just hear me lament about the current world events and barely say anything about the presented drawings.
The pieces here are three years old now. They come from a time when I was so happy to have found a certain visual language, that I would translate even the tiniest moments into it. It is not easy for me to now retrack these triggers, and maybe I should not try, after all, these drawings are not strictly illustrations to lost stories. They are beginnings of things, not finals, endings.
Just a few more pages, my friend, just a few more pages. Just a few more days, just a few more days. Come back, yes? See you again tomorrow?
I come back almost every day. Sometimes I don't read the comments and just look at the pictures because I can't sneak enough time away from work. I wish I could take more time to read. But I really love the pictures. They inspire me to create drawings of my own. I've always been hard on myself to create pictures of things but now I feel inspired just to draw lines because it feels good. I really like the pictures that look like things but I also like the ones that don't. I'm probably talking too much. Too much caffeine in my system. But your words made me think it was okay to comment.
Thank you, Brenda. This comment made my day. I had a conversation with a friend today and my conclusion was that I somehow would like to be at the beginning of things, not at the end of things. I would like to inspire, even if it is in the tiniest and silliest of ways...
So you drawing because you feel inspired by drawings here is about the best thing I could wish for.
: )
Thank you for leaving a comment.
word.
i certainly think you inspire more than you realize!
Your designs remind me of my trips to South America and Mayan illustrations.
