Why do I draw?

2009-04-02T06:27:00.001-07:00

I was kinda of day-dreaming, as I was about to start on a new piece of illustration.

Then the thought just floated into my mind. Why am I doing this?

After much thoughts, I finally realized why... I knew 1 all along, but I never realized the other...

Expression. Drawing soothes me, it is like my way of expressing myself. Usually I draw when I am sad or unhappy. But sometimes, I draw because I want to make a statement. I am too shy to shout it out to the world, but I tell the world through my art, though most of my friends usually fail to appreciate it. But anyway, it is my way of shouting.

Desire. I never really realized this until today. But in retrospective, this is so very true. The true origin of why and how did I started drawing. My desire to own, to have.

When we were young, and we couldn't afford alot of things. There were a lot of things which I wanted very badly but never could have. And it is true even on this very present date, though my desires aren't of those material in nature.

In a sense, I feed my hunger by drawing. For when I draw them down, it is as if I own them, as if they are mine, forever mine, even if I cannot truly own them. It is as if I could crystalize them permanently in drawing, i can make them mine, mine alone.

I realized today that, it is not really because of expression that I draw, but because I yearned for them so very badly. tangibles and intangibles.

I just realized I am drawing what I am missing in my life. And I despair of ever filling that void.

I think I am sick.

They asked, "Why are you smiling as your love departs?"
To which I queried, "Mayhap I should weep? Wounded I am, indeed not?"

I walked to the balcony and they followed.

I then asked, "My love had left had she not?"
To which they chorused, "Verily far had she gone."

I reached for the moon in yonder sky.

So they exclaimed, "You can never grasp the lady moon!"
To which I replied, "Indeed, I cannot."

I reached out and grabbed.

Again I whispered, "Verily, I cannot. Can I not?"
To which they affirmed, "Verily an impossible task."

I smiled and embraced my love.

And so I whispered, "But alas, I remember the love."
And so they whispered, "We are but mortal shells in the realm of thorns."

I closed my eyes and remembered.
There is no eternity, is there not?
Except perhaps that we once existed?

WIP: A Light in the Dark

2008-11-12T08:01:00.000-08:00

A night so dark when souls depart
Alone and lost, it torn my heart
I lit my torch to shine the way
But alas, they wept when they saw my face.

I led the way, and tears were shed
Their eyes upon the world they left
It pained my soul to see their tears
But still, all must follow and face their fears.
