Stayed up last night for a while, adding color to this. I never really try to keep track of time or notice when I start or finish each drawing session. I can usually guess the amount of time when people ask. They say the time matters, but I think the quality matters more. If all I do is focus on the time I'll get distracted. Time is always here don't have it throw you off track.
When I decide to draw whenever it's. Usually, I have it planned out in my head. To make sure I have nothing to do later in the day. Then the time won't really matter.
I wish I didn't have to eat at times when drawing, hahahaha. I'll be so focused I don't want to get up or move. Need to eat something though. It's good to step away from the drawing. I never try to eat and draw at the same time, I'll mess something up, hahaha. I can imagine it right now.
Added some more color today too. Before I color in anymore, I thought it would be a good time to take a picture. Just enough colors added. Also, I don't mind taking a break this time. To be honest, I probably would keep coloring If I didn't feel like stopping. It's all within the moment.
To make sure the shades and colors are "correct" I have to stand back and look at the image from a distance. The light blends the colors together. Throughout all moments of the drawing, I'm adding and fixing things. It's like one day I see something completely different than the other. So in the moments I see the errors I fix them.
Let's add more colors and see what this drawing turns into.
Attempting my best to enjoy the process. All of this red is making me feel a vibrant energy. Haven't used this much red in a while.

This is for the website. (Wordpress)
Link in the bio -
Been meaning to post this for a while, achieved this a few weeks back. About two weeks ago. Finally found an open day for me to post this. Rather post drawing updates than a "thank you" message for 200+ posts.
Every Saturday I try my best to post a quote, so far I've been constant. Post around two or three drawing updates a week.
In the post where I said thank you for 150+ blog posts. I mentioned something about adding another tab to the website. I said once I reach 4,000+ followers I would add this tab.
Change of plans, hahahaha. Sorry about that, I really wish I could create this tab and share all these different writings with you. I haven't stopped writing everything I plan to post. It's kinda a never-ending process and so are the images.
I have journals and notes of writings that keep stacking up. More and more each day. Words of love and words that I wish will bring the people together. That's all I wish for, this world to come together.
People tell me that this world will never come together. Nothings stopping you, but your negativity within your mind. Change is within.
Many individuals choose to hate instead of love. The inner self is confused and uncertain what to do, so the monkey mind begins to speak out loud.
If you wish to make a change in this world, take a look at yourself instead of going around correcting everyone else. Love and not hatred.
Whenever my mind is thinking. At this moment I write down what my mind tells me. It's as if someone is talking to me. I say this is my intuition. The guider of my paths. What to do and where to go. The person who is deep down within the soul, but is scared to come out.

Love is everything.
Love is something, and love Is nothing.
The choice is yours.
Be love, decide to act in love, or don't love at all.
Love is the only thing that will fix or heal this world.
All I say is if you wish to change or create something. Take a look at yourself.
Thyself.
Are you proud of what you see and feel, if not it's time to change today.
Tomorrow isn't promised so you start today.
Tomorrow won't be here and yesterday is only thought about.
Be here "now" or you'll never truly be here.
There haven't been many teachers within my life to guide me in the direction I wish to travel.
I have been grooving to my own frequency for a while.
As I was a child, I've always felt quite "different." Felt as if I had no potential in this world.
There are a few individuals that have guided me to where I currently am.
I'd like to thank these few individuals.
Especially, my mother, she has birthed me into this world.
Everyone has a lot to teach but few things hold a great lesson.
Let destiny create your future and not the ego.
Be very curious throughout this life, if you stop being curious your inner child is lost.
Live with your inner child. In a way, I relate this inner child with the intuition. I can relate the two.
Be in more tune with your soul and not the ego.
Trust this universe or don't.
The universe is in more control than anything or anyone else.
Listen for the whispers within the universe to guide you to where you should be.
Your body posses you more than you possess thyself.
You possess the actions, thoughts, and soul. Anything that relates to the 6 senses. Yes, there are 6 senses. If you seem to be confused research the "sixth sense." Energy is everything.
The rest is an illusion of control.
Sure, you might..... For the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/04/14/quote-51/

Took a break from coloring this and went to go eat. Here's the progress of the drawing at the moment.
On Monday I colored for a little bit. Most of the day was used to finish up the final sketch. I Posted the final sketch and jumped right into the colors.
To decide what colored pencil to apply first to the paper is similar to life or death, hahaha.
The ease and flow of the drawing take a while. Over time the frequency of the drawing is found. After you have connected with the drawing you become the drawing itself.
The art will start to flow right out of you. It's similar to when you're writing and your hands want to type or write faster than capable.
Countless creative and crazy thoughts you can't express them in such a short moment.
I "see" the future of the art but have to ease myself and not rush the drawing. When rushing unintentional mistakes will happen.
One color at a time and not 5. Or I'll confuse the mind.
I need some octopus arms to color faster. Maybe I can work on two drawings at one time, hahaha.
You just have to let the art create itself. You don't really create the art in the end. Someone else does. Who this someone is, happens to be whatever is within thyself.
As I say this I mean there's a "higher self." This "higher self" tells me to create. So I guess the intuition is what I speak without sounding crazy or delusional.
The mind and universe connect. The "Higher self" will know what is correct within each moment of time. Not the ego.
Don't force this life, but just let it be and it will all happen. When you force the processes you'll definitely crash and burn.
To be or to be in control.
The choice is yours.
When all I do is be and let my life happen. The art and words are produced. All of this.. For the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/04/12/first-colors-added-to-the-sketch-check-it-out/

Here's the finished drawing. I'm sure I'll add many small shapes here and there when coloring. I usually miss a few spots. Unseen till later on in the drawing.
I finished this last night. Was awake until midnight, maybe a little later. Didn't realize it was 12 till I checked my phone. I was determined to finish this before I went to bed, hahahaha.
This sketch was quite fast and the drawing itself is large. I'd say all those countless hours of arting and using my imagination is finally paying off.
My speed and dexterity are improving. My eyes notice detail more than they used to. My imagination is expanding.
The future can bring an infinite amount of possibilities. Just never proceed to give up on the universe. It's here for a reason, within your soul is a purpose. All you have to do is dig deep within the parts you normally wouldn't enter and reflect on thyself.
Experience creates your life into a great life or maybe one of a roller coaster. This life will have many turns and unexpected accidents. Bumps and challenges will be in the way. It's those who stand and continue to fight their battle that make it in this life.
Challenge yourself to be a greater human being. It's within all of us, all you have to do is attempt.
This sketch took about 1 week. In the end, I'm guessing somewhere around 20 hours. Possibly a little more or a little less.
Find time for things you enjoy and can get lost within. To enter a whole new world than any other. A world no one else experiences besides thyself. Become your original self. Thyself.
Everyone have a beautiful day. Have fun observing the drawing.
Take your time, there's no rush. Time is infinite.... For the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/04/09/finished-the-drawing-look-closely/

Life is similar to a seed being planted.
This seed being "I." You're this "I." We all are this "I." I'll explain what "I" speak of in a short paragraph and then I'll continue to explain the analogy. "You're the tree. The actions are the fruit and the words are the leaves. The color of the leaves represents the emotions and what you feel from within. Depending on how you choose to live this life will create the outcome of your tree. All trees are beautiful in the end. All having a great story. Either good or bad. With regret or not. I believe ugly and great things are both beautiful. Grow this tree and everything within it to the best potential you can. Be the greatest and the strongest tree you wish to be. The secret ingredient to sprout the greatest tree is love. With love, you can have the happiest tree that's flowing with all great kinds of energies. Growth is unlimited and forever don't give up."
-------------
As it rains, each drop of rain is a different thought of this earth. As the sun shines the earth brings all emotions and color. As the wind whispers millions of messages are hidden within the sky. As the universe is infinite, so are you. With fire, let there be light.
The physical body is proof of wear and tear.
Each leaf can represent each experience, thought, or day. Possibly all of these and many more.
Experience holds value and not money.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys temporary happiness.
Emotions create everlasting happiness.
Money does not create you. Experience does.
Money is an assistant in life, the rest is your emotion and thoughts. The actions you produce are the true value. The real energy and not the material.
Energy is value.
The energy of love is the richest thing in this world.
Take a look in the closest mirror near you.
Are you proud of what you see and feel within?

I'd like to say thank you for 80,000 views on the blog! :) At the moment I have 82,363 views.
I wouldn't have made it here without any of you. Literally hahaha, the only way I can get views is if people view my blog. There's no other way. I always say it's not always about the numbers or amount of fame you receive but the pure happiness and joy you get out of what you do.
We're all the same person, in the end, nothing much, but mirrors of individuals looking at themselves.
Throughout the process of creating this blog and everything with my art. I have had a lot of love created. However also a lot of stress as well.
Each day is a new day to learn something new. I'm learning new things every day. It's quite amazing how that works, hahaha.
This blog brings a huge experience in my life that I thought I would never be doing. If someone told me these exact words a few years ago. "Hey Brandon, you're going to make a blog in the future." If this was told to me about 1-2 years. I doubt I would believe or understand what this individual was telling me.
At this moment I'm quite happy and appreciate all of the viewers of the blog. The key is to keep the happiness and to not let anything take you down. In life, you will be taken down in many different moments. It just matters if you stand back up. We all fall, but very few stand back up.
I appreciate everyone who has viewed or looked at my art/writings! Each view matters as much as the last.
Thank you for letting me reach this far. I appreciate every single individual out there. I can feel the love and energy from everyone.
It's quite hard for me to express myself sometimes. I always try my best on here and the same with my comments. I always try

The progress of the drawing at the moment. Took a break to go eat something and a few other things as well. I have multiple drawing sessions throughout the day.
The days I create art I usually cut the day down into pieces. I never plan my days they just happen as they do.
If you plan the art the actual art won't produce. Instead, the energy would be something similar to work or a duty. When creating just create and think about nothing.
Have a free and open mind when creating art. Or you're causing more stress than you need.
Art is supposed to be a meditative exercise not a workout, stressful or a duty of some sort, hahahahaha.
Create art for the purpose of the art and no other reason. Use the special ingredient of love on each piece you create.
Over many hours of practice and trial, you'll be able to accomplish anything your heart desires.
I do notice my pace and speed increase on creating art as well. People have told me the same, remember to never give up on yourself.
Just manifest the thoughts and put some actions towards these thoughts.
Don't let the thought just be a thought. Instead, manifest the thought you hold within your mind. Put this thought into your reality and manifest it.
Art is nothing but mostly little manifestations combined into one big manifestation.
Throughout the process of where I'm at this moment compared to the last drawing update. I've completed quite a decent amount. I'm finding the flow to this drawing, but also not really, hahaha.
Everything was going great and this happens. I'm sure many other artists or individuals will be able to relate to what I'm about to say.
I'll do my best to sum this up without being confusing.
Okay, so when arting..... For the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/04/06/more-added-to-the-drawing-almost-finished/
