I’ve been going through a bit of an artistic rut where I don't like what I draw because my technique is at a point where it can’t really draw what I see in my head. Today I had breakfast with my friend Bef and he gave me this detail from a wood block print by Hiroshige Kawasaki along with a quote by Hokusai as inspiration and encouragement. It’s wonderful to have creative friends. :blobfoxwhoaa:

#Drawing #Creating #Creativity

Reproduction of Hiroshige Kawasaki’s “Namagumi Village” - Upright Tokaido” wood print.“From the age of 6 I had a mania for drawing the shapes of things. When I was 50 I had published a universe of designs. But all I have done before the the age of 70 is not worth bothering with. At 75 I'll have learned something of the pattern of nature, of animals, of plants, of trees, birds, fish and insects. When I am 80 you will see real progress. At 90 I shall have cut my way deeply into the mystery of life itself. At 100, I shall be a marvelous artist. At 110, everything I create; a dot, a line, will jump to life as never before. To all of you who are going to live as long as I do, I promise to keep my word. I am writing this in my old age. I used to call myself Hokusai, but today I sign my self 'The Old Man Mad About Drawing.” – Hokusai Katsushika

Who's going to
take care of
Mom when I die?

Maybe losing housing
is God's way of
protecting her

As useless as I am
she might be free
If I am gone
She might be free of me
before I'm gone
when we lose
this shit hole dwelling

Every wish
was in vain

"Creating is never ex nihilo. Never from nothing. Never out of nothing. In mythopoetic stories of creation, the primordial Void of quintessential Nothingness is rife and teeming and effervescent with the raw possibility of everything. And in our own stories of making and creating we regularly encounter the less-than-nothings."

Something from nothing

I am not a talented person, I've never been called "gifted" or anything like that. Anything I can do, anything I achieved took a lot of work and stubbornness to achieve. Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that I'm "selfmade" and that my position in society, my access to resources, etc. had nothing to do with it - quite the opposite. As a white heterosexual cis-man in Germany I have started live on easy mode. But I do not come from a wealthy background or one with large networks and access to […]

We get the occasional enquiry we can't help with, but we like to try.. If there is anyone in #Hackney, #London who can help with this please get in touch...

"I'm looking for a workspace in London, near Hackney. I'm a stone carver and need a workspace where I can make dust; I only need about 50 sf of room. Do you know of anyone trying to rent such a space or have any ideas of where I might find a lead on something like this?"

"Individuals trying to support themselves via subscriptions are as dependent on the whims of the marketplace as those working for large corporations, and it’s not just the lack of health care and 401ks that make the career of a patron-supported creator precarious — it’s the rawness and immediacy of the relationship."

i like wrote out the story and idea and then

i tried to make a list of tasks and share it and then highlight ones they might like to do, but i think they don't want to but are jus shrugging to be polite. Like i can do everything cuz its just for fun, but im def not as good with some things and its more fun with friends ^_^

so far i have
- my bf who i asked if he could use his film cool skills to help improve the visual language in the later stages
- community peer who might maybe do a 3d model
- other ppl who showed interest but havent responded
