My Hands I Draw

I've always wanted to draw or paint. My mom was good at it, and I think I can be but I never really had the chance to developed it. There was a time I tried to copy a horse, and it ended up looking like a cow. Nah, I'm not much of a sketcher (new word?) , I'm more of the Picasso type.

I like abstract because it's free flowing, and there's an element of mystery in it, and it can be all about emotions and you'll just try to understand it by the title or you can just make your own interpretation of the piece.

The other thing I like about abstract art is color.

I love colors. And mixing it up enhances the feelings, and you can just build the words from it.

I have one piece that I really love, done in craypas and I was just mixing everything up and it looked like a human being. Can't display it here since I lost it already. I did it when I was still in high school.

I just realized now that we should never abandon the things we love doing, because it's only there that we can really relax and at times, show our innermost thoughts that we can never ever explain, even to ourselves.

I've lost my way somehow, eventually stopped doing what I love to do - writing poetry, dancing, painting - there was a time I was very good at it and I just lost the time to do it.

Now, I'm finding my way to retrieve what I lost.

It's not the perfect time, but it makes perfect sense.
