Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad; whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen.

Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad; whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen. Currently: Drawing. In the traditional sense. Not so much in digital format as I've done so in the last few years. My graphite pencils and inking pens are getting a lot of mileage as of late, as it should. I've almost forgotten how much fun it is to just draw things I like, and draw things out of my dreams or at least pieces of what I remember (which is something that's been happening a lot to me lately). The scratching noise that a perfectly sharpened pencil tip makes when it makes contact with the paper. Filling in the lines and the in-between with black ink. It's the best. It's been fun, challenging, and keeps me sane.
Discipline. Patience. Control. So much to learn about drawing. Learning about new techniques, observing, applying. I'm just soaking it all in. Movies. Graphic novels. Music. The art of storytelling in whatever format it may be. It doesn't matter. It all feeds the same beast. I'm not sure where I was going with this post... Truth is, I'm a bit preoccupied. Sitting over to my left is the current piece I'm working on...and it's all I can think about right now. Also, I will make a new section on this site for art posts. I've scanned some already but getting the page together means time away from actual drawing so it will have to wait. I try post up some works on my Instagram acct. which is quite new. (@zerotorockstar if you want to add me - link on upper rt side of this page.) Thanks for reading and see you around.
