Description
"He who would do battle with the many headed hydra of human nature must pay a world of pain and his family must pay it along with him! And only as you gasp your dying breath shall you understand, your life amounted to no more than on drop in a limitless ocean!-Yet what is any ocean but a multitude of drops?"
-D. Mitchell-

I'm sorry for bugging you with this, but can your work, like this one be used for non profitable purpose as a texture or pattern? I would credit you

amazing... have you heard of the term "oceanic feeling" in psychoanalysis?

hmmm yes but I can't remember what it was (been ages ago since I even read something about psychoanalysis...). Does the feeling match the drawing?

absolutely! synthesizing,it's the state in which we find ourselves before we take consciousness that our body is separate from the rest of the world. basically it's a huge feeling of belonging to the same and limitless matter. as i see it, it could be the major problem man kind face since forever. when it implicates the constitution of the "self" we are always divided. one foot in the shiny glowing attractiveness of being unique, and the other in the regret of being alone and longing to belong to something or someone, then we pack in groups, we try to find love elsewhere and etc. mostly we are screwed anyhow, cause there's nothing we can do about it! lol
that's why we love to come to dA everyday and see that someone has faved our unique paintings that, in the end, all mean the same thing: oceanic acceptance...

Jup, that indeed is the case. But the first question that pops up is: is this a problem or just our nature?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
our nature is a problem, if you're speaking of social boundaries...
our "normal" is problematic, but even if you're a hermit there still wouldn't be a solution for that matter... we're always bouncing.

Hmm, then bouncing is part of our nature. Interesting vision!

that depends... if you take yourself too seriously, that should be a huge problem! lol

I think that is a good idea. Unfortunately it's still freezing here although it's official spring now. So it's clatter-teeth relaxing today!

i'm sorry it took me a little longer to answer, i've been having some problems and couldn't check my profile. i hope it's a little less cold there by now!

Apologies accepted. It's now freezing here again. the weather last Christmas was better than it is now at Easter. And it's snowing like crazy. How about that

on these terms, the only thing left is to build a snowman with your face and a big smile and let him outside instead, "chilling out"!
