    … and the continuation of as an artist. Speaking in another thread, sparked a concept in mind that resonates in a way I've never truly understood before. From birth to death is a collection of life experiences unique to each individual. That's what art is as an artist. An entire collection created over a lifetime, based not only on sight, or feel, or want, or need, but also based on personal experiences as unique as the artists themselves.

    That in and of itself, spurs an even greater desire to improve my own work. In the end, after I'm gone never to return, that will remain a legacy of sorts, and as a witness to who I am, or rather was as an individual. It's an important aspect of life, and an important aspect of an artist who creates for life.

    Although I haven't been utilizing my artistic abilities as much as I'd like lately, I plan on resuming my life's work soon. Ill draw a little, paint a little, build a little, maybe forge and temper a little, and hopefully I'll be able to secure what is created somewhere safe

    I guess in the end, after I'm done, my collection will be large enough to be collected or desired by someone who ... Understands how life is art and art life and how the collection itself a testimony to who we are as artists. Otherwise, I think my life will have been wasted and all I've ever achieved left unknown and forgotten, without legacy or cause or purpose.

    I showed you the unicorn already and I have no others to show. I haven't chosen an image yet and have no supplies to even get started with, but ... When/if I get back to it, I'll be sure to post my work. I'd prefer you not show the unicorn though. Also, I'll probably only post one even if I paint, draw, sketch many.

    BTW, I still like the one you painted of the woman on the bench best. I like Elvis and Marilyn as much as anyone else, but the one speaks to me moreso than the others.

    The Jabberwocky woes

    As jabberwockeys go
    I'd say it could grow
    But some jabberwockeys
    Have the jabberwockey woes

    The jabberwockey woes
    Are full of ohh no's
    But that's the nature
    Of the jabberwockey woes

    When the jabberwockey woes
    Turn into oh no's
    It's not long after
    They get the jabberwockey woes

    Maybe a day will come
    When the jabberwockeys sun
    Much like the moon will shine
    And instead of the woes, and oh no's...

    As the jabberwockey goes
    Will be filled with the shine
    Of summertime and maybe then
    It'll all be fine

    This is the unicorn, which is different from my horn which is why I chose to post the drawing. As a guy who has a horn too, only a different kind than the one above in the horses head.

    I do enjoy drawing and painting woman though. Call it a passion to avoid further confusion. K?

    You show me a Raven
    I'll show you a dove
    One on my right
    the other up above

    if I stated one were holy
    and stated the other one not
    I'd be lying through my teeth
    For I lean between the cold and hot

    and like a coin I've stated
    more than once or twice
    it's all the same - pleasure - pain
    find a balance is my advice

    So, and even though I try
    balance can be hard to find
    between the darkness and the light
    and in the ever living mind

    So ...

    Between two worlds we roam
    forever is our home
    from death to life over again
    and wherever we may roam

    Yes, wherever we may be
    Wherever we roam is home
    from the east to the west
    wherever we may roam

    Here's the thing. 2007 came and went, something was created and put in play. Stereo sounds and vini vidi vici crowns and a tatt that says more than it doesn't. Three or four ... Maybe more from ancient lore and forever more.

    Life's the same it doesn't change but it does just the same. Holy doves and Ravens, horses arrows and love, Micheal Cupid and the morning stars shining up above.

    The elusive unicorn, the holy dove, as below so above, white gowns and crowns, and a Ravens touch, Angels demons, heaven and Earth coupled with her graceful touch. So when you feel her coming near just know this much, you may lose to gain or gain and lose I know at least this much.
