This is the place where I say stuff. I promise not that it shall contain nuggets of truth, timeless wisdom, or even be at all sensical. It will most probably also not be witty and urbaine. If it is it's probably by accident. It will however be written by me, be spliced with my poetry and drawings, and it will rock. (maybe)

Despair



This is another drawing I did around the same time.
Not sure what the obsession with punks is, oh well.
Anyway, I had an idea for a series of paintings,
seven banes, and seven boons. They would all be
watercolour, small prolly 6x4. The idea was
to illustrate all the good things about/related
to humanity, and all the bad things (well categories
anyways.) So the boons would be like, faith, hope, love,
peace, joy, wisdom, and justice let's say. And then
conversely, the banes would be like death, despair,
greed, apathty, hate, ignorance and like, I dunno,
telemarketing. No er, maybe selfishness? I'm not sure.

Anyway, this sketch is sort of a (very rough) planning
sketch of how that painting (despair) would look.
Of course the guy in the painting prolly wouldn't
be a punk, and he wouldn't have like the physique
of a powerlifter, but hey i was bored on the bus okay?

Anyway, I have no idea when this alledged project
will be finished/started, but I'm writing it down
here in the hopes that maybe you people will
keep me honest, and like ask me when I'm gonna
get of my ass and paint. Course, the problem isn't
so much that I'm sitting on my ass, but rather that
I don't have any time to sit down and do anything
really, while I'm in school. Maybe bother me about
it around Christmas break.

Alright, much love
