Finished up the drawing about an hour ago. I Always clean the image before spraying it. When doing that I check the paper for pencil shavings from the colors and fill in white areas that are easily noticeable.
Whenever a piece is done, I look at it and think it’s never done. Something can always be added or messed with.
I have to stop myself or I would work on one single piece my whole life, hahahaha.
You never know when you’re really done, I guess you’re done when your guts say. “Okay, I think we’re done here now.” hahahaha.
Throughout the process of drawing this, there were endless guesses. Like always, the guesses ranged from, the image I was thinking, things I never thought to be in the image and many more ideas. It’s always enjoyable and interesting when people look at my art.
Sometimes people see things that I never knew were in my art, and it’s just there. It just takes time for my mind to process others ideas and images. I don’t always see what everyone else sees. I try my best to use my imagination and see what the viewers see
I guess anything could be in my art. When there’s no color, the range of ideas is infinite throughout the mind. With color as, well, anything could be in the image too.
It’s all about what the viewer decides to see. They say what you see defines your emotions in a way. How you’re feeling at the moment.
Everyone will see the same exact image, but not necessarily. Depending on the individual the image will be transferred differently. Seeing the same image but in the end, we’ll all look at it differently creating a new story for each one of us.
Let your imagination take over and create a picture for you to see. Don’t hold on, let it be free. Think no thoughts and just focus on the colors and shapes to create a final image.
In this image, I see a colorful octopus.
When looking at this drawing the meaning of it will be different for everyone.
My first thought is freedom or a free-spirited soul. All the colors represent the journey happing within the octopus, crazy looking to most but happy and full of colors being the emotions on the inside. Feeling all emotion that can be felt. From the worst emotions to the best emotions. Every feeling that is possible. Notice how I say that this is the inside of the octopus. It’s the inside that only matters. Each person is like this octopus. All revealing different colors and such. Never to really show, but it’s all within. Being the emotions, creating each individual.
This octopus is on a mission and nothing is in its way, the colors also represent the strength and vitality of the spirit of the octopus.
Like I said before what you see is how you feel emotionally.
Each drawing in a way. After I complete it, I’m the drawing. I feel what the image looks like. The colors represent how I feel at the moment.
I feel like a colorful octopus on a mission and nothings stopping me. I’m riding on a wave at a certain frequency enjoying this journey of life day by day. For each day to bring new endeavors. All challenges accepted to create thyself into the greatest version that’s out there.
Life itself and the experiences you create are the greatest teachers that are out there. Learn and mess up, both are needed. Life’s not a clean and simple paved road, there will be many twists and turns.
Just never lose your balance or frequency, kinda like riding a bike and in the end, everything will be okay. Follow your gut and heart.
I’m this octopus and so are you, it’s just that we will all interpret It differently.
I shared my story. What’s your story? What do you see in this image? There’s no right or wrong, share as you please.
The complete and finished drawing.
