“The Lost artist” #JustStart

“Art is the only serious thing in the world. And the artist is the only person who is never serious. Oscar Wilde”

i’ve always been an admirer of Art and always wanted to draw/paint but i always thought i can’t do it.So instead i became admirer which is also essential, but i felt emptiness in this. i told my self that one day i will Start drawing and painting but that day never came till now where i had this activity in AMAL to just start the work. And i drew my first sketch ever. it took time But i made it. i couldn't waste time to go grab sketch book from market as lock down was in effect so i just started sketching on my diary.

“Every act of creation is first an act of destruction. (Pablo Picasso)”

while i was sketching this i was so lost in making this that i had no idea what was happening around me. Had no clue how time fly by and i was so into this and i enjoyed alot.

Later i could’nt just wait and right after next day i started my next sketch which was my second one in my life and that too i enjoyed alot while doing it. i was never good at drawing and even in my academic life i was so bad at drawing that i never imagined i will be this good in sketching.

An artist should never be a prisoner of himself, prisoner of style, prisoner of reputation, prisoner of success. Henri Matisse

in just Two weeks i am more confident about it and more focused. and in two weeks i made three pieces of art which are great from my perspective for being a starter. but im confident that i can make it more better.

Thank you amal for this activity i managed to bring out my desired wish which i wanted to do so badly..!!

Here’s my last piece of art from this week.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. Scott Adams
