Sorry, couldn't help this one, as I was at the doctors and this is what was in front of the coffee stand, made me giggle! It was a bit comical, no pun intended!

The Walking Dead

I would bleed myself dry,
with the emotional sways,
because without them,
we could not express how we feel.

And without expressions,
And without feelings,
we would feel lifeless,
like the walking dead zombie,
too numb to feel what life’s about.

How are you suppose to feel,
When their impressions
leave you speechless,
while trying to suck the life out of you,
Vampire maybe, dance under the moonlight,
Or might be Wolverines, kisses of fright.
Whatever it is, we will surely find it’s way.
Like how we spawn the traditions with a twist of new.

When I think of day, you think of night.
When I think of Love, you think of Hate.
Or may be we live by fate.
Or maybe we live in between the Horizon.

You were wondering, I was walking.
I was wondering, you were walking.
Shadows all around, although we feel their presence,
but their intentions yet to show or gradually show over time.

The Universal Skies shine so bright,
but I would rather show my love for you,
no matter the nature’s course,
than to live life through a state of numbness,
like the walking dead who spend their days,
walking around in a daze.


.....I won't put the idea behind this at first glance, but if you would like to know, I will post it.

Thanks for your words of support Nowords, I really appreciate that. I always like to leave things for people to interpret how they want, sometimes I get worried about things being taken the wrong way, but I have to also accept that everyone's views differ, as that's a part of how the world goes around. As for the interpretation, I will only post it if one asks.


Here is a few digital pieces I created, with a piece I hand drew & partly painted, it's not the best, but I feel it came out kind of cool, as for a concept idea anyway....

Well, the dome is considered a pacific science center, full of so many things!

thanks

also

i wanted to mention i like to dabble in err, ... making visual ... stuffeds myself
hence my interest in your ... chingamathings


the first of those last two is right up my street with the "can you see the two faces" the last one is a real good idea IMO but tough to perfect if it'd have as many dimensions in it (i guess i see the face as somewhat more slanted away) , anyway i'm meddling.


i could make a living as a professional worddrooler

You're welcome. Chingamathings, lol. The first was actually done using the actual woman design I drew that you see (it's not finished, am working on the background stuff to it still, but decided to merger the woman and a pic I took of the dome into one, so yes, hard to perfect, but still working on texture & blending & stuff.) and basically she is hand drawn with pencil, then painted with acrylic paints and I decided to scan it and used a kaleidescope effect & came out with that, because I've been looking at Mayan & ancient cultures for some time, like way early 2000 or so and currently doing further research into historical temples, landscape, people & such, particullarly Pakal Aha. You see, I had this vision or form inside my head and when I was working with the woman piece, gave me the idea to see what it would look like if I used the kaleidescope feature to see if I could get the look I saw inside my head, maybe that's strange, but sometimes how I see things & try to create or bring out what I see into physical form either by my art or music, I dunno, but also more of going with what I feel without hesitation, but perfecting it takes a lot of time indeed.

So here are 2 pictures I actually found to support what I did in my creation (it kind of took on its own form, without copying something I seen physically, had my own touch so to speak & I didn't see these pictures physically until after I did my art piece, so that was interesting in itself (sorry for the long rambles, but I love to talk about how I create things sometimes, because everyone has their own way of seeing & doing things, that it makes me happy to be able to create things):

Venta


Pakal


So, in essence, I've just been looking at adding more texture & landcape & figures & all into my art work, trying to self-teach myself, until I can take some classes to enhance what I'm learning.

So, I hope you all enjoy or if sharing what I create isn't welcomed in any way, I wouldn't be offended to remove it either, even though I know this place is about sharing our creations & inspirations a like, which I love to do & don't take this offensively, not intended that way, just wanting to be respectful is all.

Have a wonderful weekend!
