Description
Intoxicating and overwhelming... that urge to draw.Having never been a smoker, I've struggled to understand why someone would want to pick it up. While talking with an old friend who had started the habit again after quitting for a year, he explained it to me "It's like having you own window of time; a box which you know will be filled up only with this, nothing else, your mind can wander anywhere. You hold a small corner of the world to just yourself for those few minutes"
His words surprised me, that's just how I feel whilst drawing. It's my own little space I have to to myself, where I can let my mind wander, relieve my stress, and not worry about anything else. And believe me, if I am not able to do it I get grumpy! XD Like it's my addiction. I'd never thought of it that way before...
This is in no way an avocation of starting smoking though
Was having some serious urges after traveling so much I could fit barely any drawing in, can you believe it's been a month since I posted there?! Gosh, thanks for sticking around, you're great guys
Peace, love and healthy addictions,
~Blue x

I saw your booth at London Comic Con! Your boyfriend (or so he said xD) was there, so I was a little sad that I couldn't get a chance to meet you :/ But I love your art!

I love how your style captures inside a lot of *you*. I think that's wonderful - and nice idea here. Pink and purple is quite an unusual combination but I think it works fine here.

Cool concept. Funny you post this now, my bud just put on her facebook that she hasn't drawn in three days and she's shaking and can't sleep. I can understand how art can be like an addiction.....

This is such a wonderful drawing!!!
I love it!!!! <3 and the arts itself is a very addicting and creative place to be
you lose yourself in your work, in your creation-of art, writing, dance, music-and you get sucked into your own world, where you determine how things are gonna be and when they're gonna be
everything around you is canceled out, and your mind wanders into the depths of the art as you work, bringing with it idea after idea the further your mind wanders in
It's a wonderful thing <3
I really do love this, and I've missed your work!!! Im glad you're back though; I cant wait to see more of you pictures!!!!
<3 <3 <3

Beautiful work as usual! You never fail to disappoint. This drawing is so stunning with it's color choice and the nice flow of the lines. Drawing is indeed an addiction XD I love to pick up my pencil and just lose myself and all the reality that comes along with it.

Amazing picture! And yes, so true, it is very much like an addiction. And a healthy one, too, except when the fingers just need a break! When working a picture, it's like we're in our own world, anything is possible at our very fingertips (or, mouse or tablet tips...?)
