RE: For the Love of Nature - Collection 1

in #art5 years ago

Wow yes, I remember you too, don't think we've spoken (much) before, but we definitely have a few mutual friends on here :) I've been avoiding Steem/Hive for a while, I seemed to burn out very quick every time I get sucked in too much, everything just seemed so amazing to explore/get involved in (back in the day at least :P). Now I'm going for pure enjoyment and minimal commitment, so we'll see how it goes!

And haha yes I get what you mean, I've definitely gotten cross eyed while making some of these.. I've really enjoyed trying to see what I can spot in the symmetry though. The "dog" one really got me staring, especially zooming in on it, there are so many alien faces or insect like figures, pretty crazy. I'll be posting more soon, been making some cool ones! Anyway I'm just enjoying being creative again, it's been a while. Glad you appreciate them :)

I do appreciate the encouragement (I think I remember you're known for your insightful comments?), any reminder of the good ol' days that made me fall in love with this community - the awesome people - is very much welcomed. So thank you for taking the time to leave this lovely comment! I will see you around :)

That's very likely :<)

I get the whole getting burnt out thing. It's a daily challenge for me to balance energy, a fight to resist the screen staring and be more mindful, in the now, in nature and so on. It sure is addictive and I'm usually not a fan of addictive stuff.

Glad to hear this! Creativity is natural, even though many people think they're not creative at all. I think that usually means they lost their inner child, the kid inside of them that wants to play and have fun.

I do appreciate the encouragement (I think I remember you're known for your insightful comments?)

Nice to hear this. I do my best :<)

Your last alinea is very flattering.

Big hug and I hope to see you around more often,

Very true about the inner child thing, and it is so important to reconnect with and heal our inner child. Which I'm so glad to be doing lots of during this time. It's also a great reflection for me to pass down certain lessons and model healthier habits for my children, so they continue staying connected with their inner child, as they grow up <3

Nice to hear that. We tend to be way to harsh on ourselves when we grow up. I guess we learn that from other grown ups but on the inside, we're still this sensitive little being that needs all the love it can get.

Nice to hear that you're giving this little one loads of positive attention and focus on passing this down on to your children.
