Back to Basic

Drawn on 9th oct 2011

It's not that I do not draw recently,

It is quite contrary to that, I had been always drawing.

But due to the nature of the uses of those drawings, I cannot share them yet...

Anyway, this morning, I tried to work on those commercial drawings again,

but I just can't come up with anything.

So I decided to go back to the basic.

I interpret the look book of twenty by twenty, inspired by the nice colour combination

and the simple beauty in it, I keep the strokes of pastel, my favorite drawing media, instead of blurring them and blending them.

Sometimes it's the imperfection that makes the perfect.

While in most other drawings I enthuse on the delicacy and precision, this time I remind myself of the reason why

I love to draw, it is the power of creation,

which is simple, basic and fundamental.

well I was wondering do anyone really read between the lines I wrote?

maybe everytime I just type beeleebalabuleebeeleee and still no one sees it...haha...

anyway, I understand it.

Picasso once said, “I used to draw like Raphael,

but it has taken me a whole lifetime to learn to draw like a child.”

It is not that I am anything when compared with him,

but it is essential to find the core meaning and motivation in the path of creation.

While getting hold onto rules, we constrain ourselves.

We forgot the core value and the simple of happiness.

Laid back and listen to your heart.

It is always more than meets the eye.

Deep down the surface,

we can discover the real beauty.
