All You Need is Love

So after more than a week, I have finally completed another painting. Life is busy, and gets in the way, also my motivation decided to go on vacation. Now it's back, and I've finally kicked myself in the butt to get going.

Do you ever wonder what artists did before they made it? Or what they do as their full-time occupation? If I ever made it, I think it would sound silly to have my biography say, "Sof was a cashier at..." Not so interesting, right?

Someone made an interesting comment recently when seeing one of my pieces, and it got me thinking. They said, "I wish I had some sort of talent." Although the comment made me think maybe this person was just being a bit of a downer on themselves, it made me wonder what their talent was. Everyone has one, whether it be art, music, public speaking, listening to others, math...the list is endless really. We look up to people with special talents. Many of them musicians, and artists. Whether it be someone who we can relate to, or someone the complete opposite. I find myself having a hard time with public speaking and carrying on a conversation in general. Someone very close to me is a very confident speaker, and carries themselves very well. I really look up to them, even if they don't think that is some kind of talent. To me, things that help you in everyday life such as good charisma, being able to listen and giving good advice are amazing and rare talents.


Anyways, here is my newest painting:

Evening Dreaming
I'm still trying to decide where I want to take my art. I guess I won't know until I work more on it right?


Thanks for reading!
