I do not look for the answers. All you can do is seek for the answers. Because there are no answers. Everything is a choice. No one decides this life besides thyself. Be forced by others to create your own life. Or create the life you dream of into this reality. Do you ever think your thoughts for yourself? Or do you accept everything that everyone tells you? Listening to the dogma of others. Believing or not believing. At the end of all these different belief systems. It is difficult to believe anything. You might as well believe in yourself if you decide to believe in anything. Everything you say and know. You only say and know because you were told what to say and know. These words I am saying. I only know what they mean because of what I am told. Each letter holds a different vibration. When multiple letters are combined. A "word" is created. All of the little vibrations from each letter creates a final word. Each word holds a different vibration. Giving the word meaning. One word concludes to many words. A definition holds many words of the word just said. The sound of the vibrations creates each word/letter. Everything is energy or a frequency of some sort. Vibrating negatively or positively. Whatever you manifest will manifest itself into something greater. We may all be quite delusional. Saying we know this and know that. In all reality. Does anyone know anything? Or do we just act as if we know everything and all things? I doubt we have figured out 10% of the "world/universe." This life is infinite and anything is possible. What you see and believe. Occurs to be true because you have been told what to see and believe your whole life What is put in front of you is absorbed. This is what you see because that is how you were raised in this world.

This picture was taken a while ago. I wanted to color in a decent amount of the drawing before I took a picture. Usually, do not post an update the moment I take the picture. It is best to wait a few days or longer. The colors in this drawing are quite challenging and mind-boggling. I am attempting my best to create something that is challenging enough but also helps me improve my art skills. At this moment I have a decent amount of the drawing colored in. Will post another update when the time feels correct. With all the crazy colors it is taking longer to blend everything together. The shapes and colors have to be created a "specific" way. You have to go with the flow instead of over thinking everything. When you over think everything. What you manifest within your mind will not happen. Go with the flow and your manifestations will occur. #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

Here is the complete sketch. This sketch only took me 5 days to completely finish from beginning to end. It took me a few weeks to post the final drawing, jahahaha I always take random pictures throughout the process of the drawing. I often get too lazy to post because I am too engaged in the coloring/sketching. I used to be very anxious and more alert with blog posts. I have noticed it is healthier and mentally wiser to take it one moment at a time. Instead of forcing everything at once in one moment. I apologize about the lack of posts lately. Planning to answer all the comments I have ignored soon. I apologize about being inactive. The physical body is more important than the external world and all of your "achievements." Health is wealth. Remember to take care of yourself and to not overwork yourself. Everyone have a great New Year's Eve! Remember to ignore making excuses to become your greatest version. Yes, new years is about making “new resolutions” but we should ignore having a day to count on to be our greatest version. Be your truest self as often as you can. Be your greatest version in every moment of life. Live each day as if it was to be your last instead of procrastinating everything. Life is only what you manifest it to be. What you put into life is what you get out of life. The energy you put into something will transcend back to yourself with more positive energy or more negative energy. The reality you decide to live in is up to thyself. Happiness is a choice. You either choose to be happy. Or you can live a life of pessimistic thinking. Manifest as you wish. Much Love to everyone! <3 #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

When "expressing" yourself. You can use negativity or positivity. Expressing and projection can be confused. Expressing is using your heart and soul. In the process of expressing. The only intentions that are spread are positive When projecting. Usually, the intentions and energy are negative. The negative energy of thyself is thrown on to the other individual/individuals in projection. When you project you do not think about your thoughts. The mind instantly starts rambling and acting. The past memories/emotions of thyself are thrown on to other individuals. In projection, you have no idea you are projecting. It is wiser to keep the mind at ease than to manifest a storm within the mind. When negative energy is vibrating in all directions. The other individuals/individual will feel intense energy vibrating off the projector. The listener can listen and ignore the negativity. Or the listener can absorb all of the negative energy. Manifesting more negativity within the negative mindset most possess. In the end, both people can spread more negative energy to each other. Or the person that is absorbing all the negativity can realize the person who is projecting is in pain. Negativity leads to pain or uncomfortable feelings. When you do not deal with your emotions. You throw your emotions onto others. Manifesting a more negative reality than before. The only slavery is mental slavery. When you are living this life in a negative reality. That is not you. This life was manifested to love and to care for each other. When you use your soul and heart in each moment of life. Living your life in a positive perspective. That is the real you. The ignorant negative self is not the true self. To be with your soul is to live this life in love... for the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/12/29/quote-77/ Or click on the link in my bio, then on menu then on blog.

If you were to strip every one of their possessions and clothes. We would all be naked in the flesh. Take all the colors away. Black, white, brown, orange, purple, red, yellow, green. all the colors are the same in the end. There is only black and white. Colors happen because of vibrations and light. Without the sun, we would not be here. Photosynthesis is important to the production of life. Everything just happens. Do you live this life to show off to others? Or are you doing everything for yourself? At the end of the day, you are within your body and no one else. You only feel you. No one else feels what you feel. Are you happy doing the things you do? Or in the end is it just trophies of your “accomplishments.” Is there an intention behind the energy you put into the world. A purpose that is held in your heart. An intention to create something positive in your life. Or is there zero purpose? The things I choose to do are for myself. I am not a selfish person. You have to experience things for yourself. Instead of looking good for a few moments to other individuals. It is not about who is winning. All you have to do is spread the love. Be original and yourself, do not mock someone else’s actions to become another. look within your soul and become what you see. Be the one who walks away from the crowd. Originality is within us all, most fear to show their true selves to the world. Be yourself. How would you feel if all of your achievements/trophies were taken away? Imagine how you would feel. Achievements do not define you. Your soul and energy define you. We are all living in the same place called “Earth.” I see... for the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/12/17/quote-34-repost-new-addition/ Or click on the link in my bio, then on menu then on blog.

Started the drawing about a week ago. Have been too anxious sketching out the drawing to post an update. I am feeling a high amount of energy towards this drawing. I entered my “flow” state earlier than I thought I would. This picture is an update from a few days ago. As of right now there is more added to the drawing. I would say about 1/3rd of the drawing is complete in this photo. Wanted to take a picture sooner than later so I could update everyone on the process. Following the process of the art adds more to the experience of the drawing. You get to see all the stages of the art. In this drawing, my main focus is on detail and the arrangement of the colors. I never know what I am getting myself into until I start drawing what I believe I can create. If you do not believe in yourself, then how do you expect to become your greatest version… I have that feeling of doubt when creating each piece of art. In the end, I end up believing in myself and ignore the fear. Proceed and do not look back. Create, create and create. See what your artistic mind comes up with. What you have to do is face the doubt with zero fear and ignore the fear. In reality, everything is in your mind. The mind does nothing but play games with you. #abstract #abstractart #art #artist #artwork #colors #detail #doodle #drawing #geometry #multimedia #pattern #popart #prismacolor #sketch

I do not understand the way "my people" live this life. Life is a gift and we are acting as if we are living in a reality of hell. We ignore becoming our greatest versions. In this life, no one cares. Live blindly or live with clarity. We all look forward to the next life. Ironically ignoring this life "now." We are all infinite beings. All you possess is the "now." Do not get lost within yourself. Get your head out of your ego. Be the real you. Everyone is an imposter. Real people you never forget. Fake people are everywhere. You cannot tell the difference within the fake people. Fake people blend in. They all seem to be the same. Real souls stand out. Fake people act in their ego. Fearing their true self. We have failed our creator of Mother Gaia. Every action seems to be opposite of what it should be. We are living life in reverse instead of forwards. Dying in a slow decay. Lacking love within our hearts and souls. I feel the energy of the infinity within my soul. I wonder if others are out there that feel energy emerging throughout themselves similar to myself. Live this life blindly or with clarity. Imagine each day being your last day on earth. Let me correct that. Imagine each moment being your last moment on earth. Would you be happy or sad? Live this life in negativity or positivity. Be the controller or be controlled. ;) The scariest chemical reaction that can occur within us all is "anger." In anger and in war, nothing is resolved. More problems are manifested. The person who "wins" whatever winning is. Gets their ego stroked. In the end, no one wins. There are two sore losers. Ego is a tricky monster. The ego is not real. The heart that beats in your chest is one hundred percent "real." Then again, what is real... for the full description visit my last blog: https://chaoticshapes.com/2018/12/10/quote-76/ Or click on the link in my bio, then on menu then on blog.

Carlos Santana. The drawing is finally finished. This drawing took a little longer than intended. Was busy with other parts of life besides the art. Certain periods throughout the year I create more than other periods. I enjoyed this color scheme. The colors used in this drawing are different compared to most of the drawings I have completed. Always attempting to challenge myself more and more each drawing. Each piece of art that is completed. Helps you challenge yourself. Helping you become your greatest version. When creating you learn a lot about yourself. Art helps you grow as a person. Art has helped me see the true value in life. It is the little things that matter the most. Not the “success” or the “finish line.” Without all the little steps there would be no “finish line.” Art is the process of many little fragments of an image put together. Life is similar to art. Life possesses infinite moments with infinite possibilities. All of these little moments help you become the “you” that we call “you” today. Patience is key in life. If you believe in yourself, you can manifest anything your crazy mind desires. Do not let others tell you what your reality is. Projection of the ego is usually nothing but ignorance. Use nothing but love and tune into the higher frequency of your soul. You create your own plan or you become a part of someone else’s plan. Usually, you create your own frequency. The main focus is to stay within your own frequency. Ignore the “Energy Vampires.” Some people have nothing better to do than spread negativity. Listen to your soul and intuition. If you listen to thyself life will manifest itself into something beautiful. What your mind is attracted to you should pursue. If you enjoy who you are. Keep...

This statement might be quite confusing. Projection is egotistical. I imagine a hologram reflecting energy off thyself similar to a movie. This movie is a reflection of thyself projecting in a negative way. The projection of the ego is emotions thrown on to another individual or individuals. An act or play of thyself. A movie in progress. In your ego acting in a foolish manner. When you project your emotions. Most of the time what is expressed is negativity. A cry of self-acceptance. We will all be different in this life, but then again quite similar. Be original and be yourself. Tap into that soul of yours. In negativity. Emotions of thyself that are not normally expressed. Are released into the world. If negativity is thrown on to another The individual who is projecting their negative energy. Is hurting within themselves as well as hurting the others around them. If a soul is hurting and in pain. The soul will bleed and cause pain to others. Projection is egotistical. Some individuals turn the negative energy into positive energy. The wisest thing to do is to have an optimistic outlook towards life. If you have dreams or a vision. Do not let another tell you what you dream or vision is "impossible." In the word "Impossible." There is a secret message. "I'm possible." Some words hold secret meanings. As long as you look within yourself and listen to your soul. Anything is possible. Just remember to be the you that is you. If anything you fail at attempting to become your greatest version. I rather fail at life in an attempt of being myself. Then to fail at life in an attempt of not being myself. In the end, you are the only one in control of your life.
