Art Every Day Month- Day 22- Who Needs Reality When You Can Make Up Your Own?
I love how this one felt to do. Even though I have no idea what it is. If I had to identify it I would say that it looks kind of organic- like a flower or plant from another planet. But it was very absorbing and relaxing to create it. I do enjoy letting the pencils or brushes just lead me. It really is fun and takes the pressure off tremendously to not have to TRY to make my drawings represent anything real. If I were actually attempting to paint a specific flower…. like a rose or a tulip… I would have way too many opportunities to be worried that it wasn’t turning out exactly right. Whereas if I am painting or drawing something that doesn’t even exist on this reality plane no one can tell me I’m doing it wrong… unless one of those aliens from that other planet happens to show up here one day!! And painting and drawing like this always feels like true creation to me because I’m actually making something that has never existed before!! How cool is that!!
