Paul, the beautiful drawings on the pens are from
jmfletch, not mine (though I'd like to)
regarding what you said about your interest in art and your thoughts on this, I am happy that you wrote it and that you draw, I think what you said is right and beautiful, I believe that practicing drawing or painting , plays, trying any form of art is always a winning bet, something that is always worth doing and that I recommend to everyone (drawing, or painting, or ceramics, music, etc., the advice is to see if we like one of these things, and choose the one that interests us the most). then drawing is something I love and I really like, I like looking at the drawings, I liked trying to make them (I liked copying the drawings of the comics I read) and so for me the idea was to go to the drawing and try again also because I was sorry that I had quit in middle school due to a misunderstanding.
of artificial intelligences, I'm sorry above all because over the years it may, for various reasons, dissuade many people from drawing or painting, and I think that would be a bad thing.
for many it is a tool, I think that in some cases it could be but investing in it to replace the tools, for time and prices and for the masses is more of a detriment than an advantage. but it's probably my pessimism and my vision, and that it seems to me something out of control whose effects they haven't imagined or that they don't care.
we are in a time in which they advertise of any kind, but on youtube and instagram they censor even very famous works of art because the algorithm says it is vulgar, obscene, in short, for people there are more and more limits, for machines there is no privacy law therefore this I'm sorry.
I think that music won't be replaced by computers but we see musicians and also because music has copyright laws that don't fit by art.
I said that personally I don't know if I would have chosen to draw again and why I wish I hadn't stopped doing it, I think drawing could perhaps have saved my life if I hadn't stopped doing it or if I had started trying continuously at least, about 3 years before when for about 2 years I was in a city, I believe that drawing also helps to see better, to pay more attention, I was near one of the most beautiful places in the world and I didn't realize it, I didn't complete university for an exam which didn't let me access the last year and all a series of coincidences, accommodation, missing data programming, above all my mistakes, I made a mistake and could have done better, but really with a little attention or luck it was enough that I didn't put the place that I chose as first but as third, as everyone did except me, the same thing I could have done in places that were all really better, close to the metro and they didn't all happen a series of strange coincidences, for example if I drew I would have carefully checked which of the various principals to choose, maybe I would have believed more in myself. I tried to do my best anyway but a mess,
drawing wouldn't hit anything but I stopped drawing in middle school because we had a drawing teacher once a week, one day he assigned us to draw comics and my assignment was thrown away saying that I hadn't done it, and also in my last university experience after a good grade, it was oral then accusations of recommendation, now the world is turned upside down by technology, there is no longer any cheating or cheating for things that maybe are a little bit so, and I let my life be conditioned both by mistakes but also when really I had only tried to make the best of it. I know I'm less than a grain of sand, but having resumed drawing helps to make me relive the pain and bitterness both for my mistakes and for unfortunate moments, for strange coincidences.
Heirloom - did Tone play with them when he was young? Mmmm there is something so delicious in your direct watercolour
