Have been quite busy the past week. Working every day instead of arting. Taking care of the physical and mental mind. Took a picture of the drawing a while ago. I apologize for the random posts. I post when I get the chance to. I know time is infinite and we have time when we make room for time. Mental and physical health is more important than anything. People forget about the internal and only wrap their mind around the external. In my mind health is wealth. Wealth is not important. Riches do not define you. How rich your heart and soul are defines you more than ever. Take care of yourself, everyone. Will be posting updates in the near future. #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

This sketch took me 2 days to finish. Ironically I am posting the final drawing a few weeks after I have finished it, hahahaha. When I say 2 days, usually that consists of 8-10 hours a day. I feel as if I "create" or "art" slower than most artists. That is okay in my eyes. You must appreciate the process of the art as well as each moment that is spent creating. If I am feeling an infinite amount of energy sometimes I lose track of time forgetting to eat and drink. Losing feeling in my whole body losing myself within the art itself. 12 hours can go by and time will feel infinite as if there is nothing but this very moment. When time drags you are living in the future. Waiting for a destination that is nowhere to be. Waiting for a "future" that is never here in this "moment." When time makes you anxious you are thinking of the past. What "could" have I done. There is no "could" all there is, is the now. Without the "now" there would be nothing. There is nothing but this very moment when creating. All these mind games I tell you... The moment holds infinite power. The power is within you. When creating art you enter a whole new reality. Entering other dimensions compared to this dimension on "earth." That is on the days I have the chance to work on art. There are days where I do not art or sketch/draw at all. My posts are not "up to date." I attempt my best to post and be as active as I can. Do not put all of your energy into the "virtual" world. Remember to spend some time in the "actual" world. Focus on the moment and breathe in that fresh H2o #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

Started sketching this drawing a while ago. Took a picture before I got too carried away with the sketching. I always finish the sketch ten times faster than how long it takes me to color the whole drawing itself. To me at least. In my subconscious, the colors matter more than the sketch itself. Then again, you can contradict that and say the sketch is more important than the colors. Once the colors are applied to the paper you cannot "erase" the color that was applied. The color that is applied is once and done. Possibly that is why I care more about the colors more than the sketch. The sketch is the structure and the color is the emotion/energy within the picture. My sketches are similar to a bunch of spider webs. My eyes often begin to bulge and hurt. I have to take short breaks depending on how "anxious" I am. The reason why I put quotation marks around the word "anxious." Is because I believe we all have a form of "anxiety" or "mental disorder." No one is perfect and if you say you are perfect you are the biggest liar in the world. Life is about turning the imperfect into the "you" Be yourself instead of aspiring to be someone that is not even yourself in the end. Become your greatest version. I usually practice a breathing exercise before arting in any form. Meditation is key to balance your energies just perfect. If it were not for my meditations/practices and patience the art you see now would not present itself. Life is a balance of all the energies combined into one. You have to figure out what is best for "you." Everything is related to or connected to the same center point.

Bob Ross A little late posting this. Finished the drawing a few weeks ago. It took an immense amount of energy to create this drawing. The colors in this drawing are similar to some of the drawings I have created in the past. Attempted to use bright and vibrant colors. I ended up using almost all of the paper corner to corner. I use 18x24 inch paper when creating most of my drawings. Whenever I begin the sketch of each drawing I have an uncertain feeling. Thinking in my mind. "How will this go" In a doubtful but undoubtful voice. Thinking of the future and manifesting doubtful thoughts. Then retelling my subconscious mind anything is possible and to not doubt myself You can never rush the process. Especially the creative process. You have to let the moment "be." Let it happen. If you force the creative process. The art your soul "intended" to create will not manifest itself into existence. If you are creating your art for the validation of others. The purpose of "creation/art" is destroyed. The creative process should be meditative. Not forced similar to a "duty." Use your heart and soul as tools when creating. Ignore what others think. "You" are the creator of your own art. You have to desire the creative process to the point where you become lost in the process itself. Create art that will make no sense to you at the moment. Only in the future, will your creations make "sense" to you. Let the moment be and accept what you have created. Fix something if you need to fix something. Do not get too carried away. There are infinite mistakes and possible "corrections" or "errors." How do we know what is "correct" and "incorrect." Art is here for the individual to express themselves through their own reality. The artist is sharing perspective...

I am not sure what I know, but all I know is I know nothing. Life is a subjective experience. For one individual to tell you that you are "correct." Then for another individual to tell you that you are "incorrect." I am quite confused. Is there only "1" way to live this life? Everyone is telling each other how to live this life. The individuals that are telling everyone what to do are never living through this life. You must seek to create your own path manifesting your own destiny. You cannot be catered your whole life. If all you do is listen to others and follow what they say. You will never truly know the "you" that is deep within "your" soul. When you follow and listen to the voices of the naysayers. Your true self will never reveal itself to the universe. The one who chases the crowd becomes the crowd. The one who creates and manifests their own path will encounter a reality similar to no other. Infinite possibilities. When you create your own reality and live within that reality. Feeling no pressure or insecurities you are on the way to becoming your greatest version. When you tune into your own frequency. Ignoring others, but respecting everyone for who they are. Nothing will bother you and no negative energy can interfere with you. The positive life is the life to be lived. Use nothing but love in each moment of life. Think for yourself for once. I feel as if very few individuals think for themselves. Accepting everything and questioning nothing. Living in this fairy tale of a life. Manifesting a hell of a reality. People ignore what is "important." While what is not "important" is at full attention. Why is it we care about the illusions in life?

2 pictures in 1. Sorry about the cropped image. Reset my computer and lost some photos. The colors in this drawing are exploding with energy. The process of this drawing has been similar to riding a roller coaster. Each moment is unpredictable with mass amounts of emotion. The "final" piece of art is never "final. "It is up to the artist to decide when the art is "final." If you really think about it the art is creating itself more than you are creating the art. "Art" comes from the "subconscious. "Everything you "hide" normally you release when feeling "open" with your emotions. You become "open" during creativity. Using the subconscious mind. You can never force creativity. Creativity must come from the flow state. Creativity is a form of meditation for the soul, body, and spirit. All the emotion and energy I am feeling at the moment I express myself through my art. Energy is in a constant state of movement. You have to release your energy in a positive way instead of in a negative way. Release your energy wisely into this world. Avoid harming yourself and others. Much love to all you beautiful people! <3 #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

When you observe or see something. What you are observing and seeing is completely different in your eyes. Compared to the person next to you. Possibly what we all "see" in something is completely "wrong." Everyone is unique and sees everything in their own perception. For example, if you were to show someone a piece of art. What they "see" within the art is what they "see" within themselves. We see everything as we are. The environment you surround yourself with you become. The thoughts you, consume you have a higher chance of manifesting these thoughts. You should be constantly evolving over time. If your opinions and thoughts on ideas never expand or change that is not healthy. You can not be the same you all your life. Go out there into the world and expand that mind of yours. Evolve. #change #consume #environment #everyone #evolve #expand #manifesting #life #observe #opinions #perception #surround #time #unique #yourself #thoughts

2 pictures in 1. Sorry about the cropped image. Reset my computer and lost some photos. I often apologize for the time in between posts, hahaahah. Everyone tells me I am okay and to not worry about posting. I Post when "I" feel the best to post. "Should" be posting more often than I do. Thinking my mental state is more important than posting a blog post. You cannot drop everything for your image/ego. Health is wealth. You have to take care of yourself first before doing anything else. Without yourself, you would not be here. Take each day, one moment at a time and eventually, the whole day will vanish in a few moments. Life is lived at a fast pace for most individuals, but in reality, we are moving a mile per hour. Time is so slow and vast it is hard to measure "time." What is "time?" Time could be anything, hahahah. Use your "time" wisely. #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

Without a "challenge" in life, there would be no life worth living. Why even live this life if there is no "challenge." Yes, it is wise to "be." When you are in the mindset of "be." That does not mean to not "try" at life at all. To "be" means you are fully attempting at life. To "be" means to be at peace with your inner self. When you are in control of your inner self. Your emotions do not get ahead of your ego. To "be" does not mean to ignore yourself and your surroundings. "To be" means to be more aware of yourself and your surroundings. Feel the presence of the energy or ignore all the energy that you are dealt with. To keep peace with your inner self means you are "challenging" yourself the best you can. If you use peace and love in your life. That does not mean you are "weak." It takes a "real man" to look within himself and feel his emotions for what they are. Then to express what one is thinking is an act of bravery releasing all the energy that is built up. Do not forget to fully experience this gift of life. Few souls are living while many are just existing. Living as being "present" at this moment. Existing as in a manic depression thinking about all moments besides this very "moment." The "creator" created pain to help us become our greatest versions. Bandaids only do so much. When you cut yourself there is pain and blood for a while. Over time the cut heals itself. Becoming stronger than before. A "new version" of skin has evolved. Through the experiences in life. Especially the "negative" experiences. You become your greatest version. Within all "negativity" there are lessons to be learned. All the "healing" helps you become your strongest "you." Sure, feel your emotions...
