never duplicated - each handmade piece of art can never be recreated in its exact form.
perhaps imitated sure, but not once, ever for never the same.
i have a vision for an exhibit of a thousand suns, inspired by @horiyoshi_3 and his collection of dragons as taught to me by @horiyume_tattooadam
and I wish that i could sketch dragons of such complexity. but what was once THE SIMPLE VOICE will always be but that and as i evolve, i recognize the strengths and limitations, ever so apparent, that my remaining bandwidth allows.
soul i’ve been creating suns, sunsets, oceanscapes on different canvases for YEARS. not that they aren’t complex, but bc as much as i draw them, i am drawn to them.
and not one of these, is ever the same.
as i approach the passing of the torch from one year to the next (not soon but before i know it) and while recovering from surgery to repair an issue that when that torch been done be past will have covered half a year of my life.
and it’s the beauty of the imperfections that i find myself admiring. funny, bc i want to laugh at how truly difficult it’s been.
oh how the worst yet, always surpassed by the best and thus the cycle starts again… and again… and how lucky we are for it to be again for there are only soul many breathes in the one long moment in this incarnation.
imperfection and possibility, soul much soul and possibility when we embrace imperfection.
this is why i love denim, from raw selvedge, a fresh canvas to create, to the extreme distressed creations, destroyed and repaired, holes and all speaking to the duality of all of this messy beauty we call LIFE.
they say in DIVINE, we’ve been recreated, but truly never the same.
NAMASTE-home and breathe deep
NAMASTE…
NA…
