As I've started with Art in the broadest sense years ago, it was digital in Photoshop. But one day I thought I have to go back to the roots and take a pencil and a paper.
I watched here and there, and tried out what I would like and how I find the right start for me, the bottom of drawing and painting.
My biggest question was - could I learn to grow, to develop my Art with fun and calmness?
And years later here I am and it feels like coming home for the first time. -
The three things I have begun to learn is the way to see, to found shapes,
that half an hour a day is really more than nothing for a few days and that also little projects brings so much fun and steps on the way,
and that are my beloved friends with feathers, fur or scales don't have to be only "a something" to draw, that I can see the whole being while sketching.
That is really a lot and the start of my way - let's go! -
Thank you so much, Natalie, not only for showing us the sketching - your words are an important enrichment. As it would said before - you are our wise owl without feathers 💚 🦉🌺
Oh I loved reading this Andrea! Particularly that just a little time each day is momentum, and sooo much more than that as well. I am so honoured to have you walking alongside us here!
Yes to everything you've said in this post. With all that is happening in terms of art and creation, and how these are being co-opted by technology and consumerism, the simple act of creating with our own hands feels like resistance of the best kind, and an opening to what it means to be human and in relationship to the more-than-human world.
You are an angel with wings and fur and long slender legs and wise old eyes and fluffy pointy ears and a voice of exquisite song. YOU, dear Natalie, are the embodiment of CONNECTION and COMPASSION and LOVE xxx
Just loving all your views and it sounds so close to my soul that aches to create art!✨️🦋 though am not consistent here in creating art, seeing posts like this gives light and more purpose to my soul!❤️
Oh thank you Revathi - I really appreciate your kind words, and I am honouring that part of you yearning to create, and encouraging you from over here 💖
