awww honey,i dont know how much of it is a talent indeed,for me i think its just hard work...
But i can tell you one thing with all certainty ,the more you practice,the more benefits you ll achieve towards your art.
I am painting/drawing for around 6hours per day,many days i reach 10h.Some times i go to bed at 5 am because i didnt pay attention at the clock,and when i am doing art,time flies...

Madame, you are beyond anything. From now on, I will just see...there's nothing more to say.

I respect you.

XRlS In reply to S-A--K-I [2013-03-16 17:35:16 +0000 UTC]

I am not beyond anything sweetheart.Still i m in the learning process and i strongly suspect,i wont feel content ever.
ANd guess what? I respect you too.

S-A--K-I In reply to XRlS [2013-03-17 05:23:39 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I know you won't feel content with yourself, that's normal...I would feel the same for my works too...

But for me, or others...it's bewildering how far you can still go...

And you respecting me????? That's a bad concept, not practical enough to be applied in reality....

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

XRlS In reply to S-A--K-I [2013-03-17 08:42:22 +0000 UTC]

How far do you believe i can go? I mean,yeah i am trying.I do want this.I experiment every time.Only to find out that in the end i am only human.
And what is that * not practical enough to be applied in reality* supposed to mean?
If you know me even a little bit by now,then you know i dont give a fuck about reality,and thats why i am changing it everyday through my art!
Remember; respect is for ALL of us,and NOT just for some of us.

S-A--K-I In reply to XRlS [2013-03-17 08:50:25 +0000 UTC]

Well, yes..respect as fellow human beings...that's for everyone. Love and respect, makes this world a wonderful place. I know.

But when Art comes into play, you are someone, who I look up to, as an inspiration and in awe. And from that feeling, comes 'that' respect.

How far you can go?
Details. I'm sure you are going to bring up even MORE of them.
You are bringing the out-of-focus camera thing better than even camera lenses.
Your water colors and acrylic paintings are going at a beautiful spot between realistic and abstract.

And you know, these are just few of those things that amaze me and everyone else. You might come up with something new and totally crazy someday.

So, you can have good wishes for me, but what I have is 'respect'.

XRlS In reply to S-A--K-I [2013-03-17 09:45:39 +0000 UTC]

This world isnt a wonderful place,because love and respect apparently dont apply to all of us.Therefor it rarely happens.But it happens
And when it does its like the sunshine on our faces.

So ..when it comes to art,i never thought i would be inspiring to anyone.Its not a question of confidence,i am pretty sure of my skills,its just that i do what i do because i must.If i dont do this i will explode to pieces.Art completes me,makes me whole as a person,gives me balance and stability and makes me happy.How can i resist that?

how did you end up THAT wise in your age? amazing!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

S-A--K-I In reply to XRlS [2013-03-17 10:52:52 +0000 UTC]

I'm not THAT wise. What I speak is what I know and each of us has our own level of 'wisdom'...

I know the world isn't actually a wonderful place, because that what we would like to believe, doesn't imply to reality. Still we keep our hopes up, try to see the 'sunshine' on people's faces, makes it easier to live with our own internal battles.

And what you said about how you complete yourself in Art, I know that too. Art makes sense of me. So does literature and music, though I don't practice these like the first.
I consider myself lucky, that I've found something to live with...and it's Art, it's infinite in pleasures and pain, will keep me hungry, still content for ages it seems.


P.S.- I think life makes all of us wise, in our own ways, by each of our own stories. So it did with me, with my special ones.
