When i had the time…

when little girls scribbled hearts and stars, i painted trees and sky. 

while teen girls blushed with fresh flowers, i dried and preserved them

when the papers have been read, i mashed and gave it new life.

while they used their pens writing love and hate notes, i sketched landscapes

while they spend on lipsticks and things, i spent for brushes and paint.

while they work their eye shadow and maskara, i studied shadows and light.

while they got rid of oil on their faces, i used oil and tried to paint faces.

while they wished for the universe to connive with their wishes, i drew the stars and the cosmic sky.

All of this when i had the time….it’s not much but its mine

    Art is like life kid the only way to get anything out of it is to keep putting something into it fortunately painting doesn’t involve toil and sweat but the emotional strife constantly questions you if you should do that(art). Stiff upper lip and don’t listen to that voice that keeps saying your a failure because we are born to create not critic. That’s for the fools who can’t create!
