Mineral Palace, Art By Me

It is 5 am. Or maybe 6. He is the only one who is awake. The weather is chilly. Street lamps are now off. Birds are starting to wake up, but for now, it is all silent. It is silent and desolate so he can be all alone with "it". That's what he lives for.

The best time of the day.

We are equal.

Sometimes the art process takes me nowhere near my own personal look on art. 

This particular image started out with me painting a red circle, and continued without my own will. This is how it goes:  There is a direct instruction in my head to paint a certain color in a certain shape in a certain place. After I do that, I get the second instruction that may appear very clearly or sometimes rather blurry. 

Step by step I follow out this out of nowhere input, and I don’t judge whatever it may be doing. It is as though of I am not creating the image myself, but recreating an already existing image. 

When I finish, I am unsure whether I actually like what comes out, since I never included my own taste and interest in it anyway. But I still pay it much respect since it comes from the other side with a reason.

He was returning home, wondering if...

The more we debate with self-righteous people who think they are the ones that are making the world spin, the more we sink down in their hell! Leave them aside, live your life! Paint, write, make science, make art, MAKE something! And really, really enjoy it.

This is the only way to be wise. It's the only way we will ever really make a change in the world too.

Some sketches I did while I was working on my animated film project in 2018. I was testing for imagery that looks both realistic and abstract at the same time. It is that midpoint where you can still make out the forest, yet there is also enough ambiguity to let you see pure, organic shapes.

Aside from the first one, these didn't make it into the movie. With time constraints, I was unable to do as much as I liked.

Some quick sketches that I'm not too happy with. But well, I took my time.
