Drawing

Every Part
         Every Stroke
                  Every Line
                           Every Curve
                                    Every Shape
           To start somewhere
           and everything else
                         will follow.

Author's Note

its my reflection on how to sketch.
just remember that every line of every part of the subject is connected.
an old poem july 2011
this image is an old photo of me(THE YOUNG ME) doing some painting with my friend
i miss the old me, maybe because i dont do painting or even sketching work as for the moment.

This is a very expressive short piece. It makes such sense in the context you have set it and it has great emotion and passion is such a short space. I don't know your painting but your poetry is painting with words. We all need to reflect but do not let reflection drown you in the sea of mirrors!

Nice. This seems more like a metaphor for life than anything else, especially that last stanza. All you have to do is start, take that first step and the rest will follow, if you continue. It's a good message.

As for your old flame, sketching, it's not too late to start anew. Set aside some time to give your muse a chance to re-familiarize itself with its first avenue of expression. Or the next time you write a piece, ponder a bit on what picture you've painted with words and then see if you can create it with pen or brush.

As you say in your piece, "To start somewhere and everything else will follow."

So lovely...
It is art in optima forma.
You never know where it ends
Then you're a true artist, pure out
Of your feelings filled with the moment...

To me the movement of the Es suggest a stair to something, maybe that's what you mean about connection; and please, do find your old self, it's what makes you YOU. After a second look, this reminds me of a diagram of words ..

[Pax]

Thanks my friend, my old self seems so far away for now, but i will definitely keep up with my past and future...

[emmajoy]

See you do, or .. :)

makes perfect sense, insight, rhythm and wisdom, it's the domino effect
put to inspiring terms, the capturing layout takes the intended expression
to new heights. Great work, I sincerely liked this.
