"Something works only when it's real"
Reality is a series of objectively existing facts and phenomena. There are objective (material) and subjective (phenomena of consciousness) reality. They are closely interrelated and depend on each other.
In quantum mechanics there is a theory about the Multiverse, ie, the existence of an infinite set of parallel worlds. A number of scientists say that this hypothesis is more philosophical, since it does not lend itself to falsification, but I am inclined to its reality (here we have an esoteric channel, do not we?). This theory speaks of an infinite number of realities that can include a series of events analogous to our reality, they can also be slightly different or fundamentally different, and these factors formally depend on the observer. For example, in our reality you are a cook, and in another you are a restaurateur, otherwise you are an astronaut.
If we apply the above to everyday life, this is explained as follows: "reality is determined by consciousness" or "the observer (person) chooses his reality (life)". Every day a person takes several dozen decisions, performs hundreds of actions and thoughts, changes his consciousness and, as a consequence, lives. Imagine: life is an infinite space of variants of events, and every day we move from one to another through SELECTION.
What is CHOICE?
Choice is a combination of actions and thoughts; The decision has adopted an infinite number of options.
Any choice is a transition to another reality, and there is an infinite number of such realities. Based on this theory, there is a reality in which I or you, for example, are a millionaire. And formally nothing prevents us from choosing this reality. We just need to adapt our consciousness, thoughts and actions in the right direction.
Each event has several variants of development of events, and the subsequent variants are their own development, etc. To infinity. It's like an endless algorithm. I hope I did not embarrass you too much.
HOW TO LOVE MYSELF.
When I was young, I was mocked by my older sister. She called me by the names and said that nothing good would come of me, I would close her in the bathroom and go out with my friends (for a minute, you're small, in a tiny locked room, sitting for several hours), she made me stop respecting and loving yourself. She is gorgeous in this. Perhaps for the most part, not because I was small and more suggestible, but because I loved her and considered her an example in everything. For me, she was beautiful and intelligent, I wholeheartedly admired her and wanted to achieve her mood and love. In response to my attempts - mockery, cuffs and bullying. Having grown older, I hated her with all my heart, and then myself.
Self-hatred was cruel and rapidly progressing, turning into a stage of self-abasement. At 13 I began to drink, got into a "bad company", slipped out of school, fought, wore black, long hair, braids, chains, gossips, a bright brand. Virtually did not appear at home and at school, threw singing, replaced all healthy hobbies with alcoholic smoke and violent aggression to yourself and others. I will not go on, I will simply say that this state has turned into a protracted depression and a huge bunch of complexes that could be disassembled until the end just recently. I did not just not love myself, but initially did not understand that this could be done with impunity.
I do not talk about it to understand, but as a living example of a man who has managed to love himself.
My first attempt is a daily MIRROR PRACTICE. I think everyone has heard of her: every day, morning and evening, say 10-50 times your reflection in the mirror: "I LOVE MYSELF." The first time I stood just six times and cried. The feelings were mixed: fear, mistrust, confusion, anger, shame, despair, pity ... I felt no sense of spirituality and joy of recognition, and I really wanted to give it up, but after 10 hours I stood by the mirror again and with The glassy look repeated: "I love me."
So, something we are too far away from the topic. Let's go back to my art. The first thing I started with - Sketch
My favorite paper for watercolor Canson Moulin du Roy.
Brush- Pinax, Malevich, Gallery, Roubloff, White Sable Robert Simmons.
Watercolor: white nights
But remember that everyone chooses favorites for himself. And of course you need to try everything to find the perfect materials for yourself.
When you love the slope to the right ππ
Here is such a kryvenky sketch β₯ οΈ
As long as their hands reach them.
In general, I here again came across a comment - "And I did not get tired of the same ROSE painting". Funny huh?
On the aspiration.
I think that many of you sometimes sat and could not understand what to do "in life." I'm talking about when you have a lot of ideas, lots of plans, but I do not understand what to stop, and sometimes you do not start anything at all.
Personally, I was.
In general, now I adhere to this point of view - to be the best in something than the average in everything. Well, the most important thing is the desire - the results will be.
In the figure I try to immediately make a shading, to designate a light-shadow and texture. Previously, it was not so π
So I advise you to sit longer with a sketch under the watercolor, it will be more interesting
I love watercolor πΒ
Watercolors are one of the most favorite artists. Firstly, watercolor has a lot of different techniques, and secondly, with its help you can create a beautiful drawing, even if you do not know how to draw at all.That's why I love watercolors so much. Just look at how the colors blend, The picture immediately becomes bright.Β Β
Hair and Background
I armed myself with a brush, watercolor paper and appropriate paints.
Firstly, you need to slightly moisten the sheet of paper, since we will work with the technique "in the raw".
I print watercolor on a brush and paint small colored "islands". My goal is to cover the entire sheet with bright spots.
You can think in advance about the arrangement of colors on this improvised "palette" so that as a result they harmoniously merge with each other, and you can act spontaneously, getting the most unusual combinations.
Working in a wet state, you need to act quickly, because watercolor also dries quickly. Using a wet brush, we connect the colored islands, allowing the paints to freely mix on paper.Β Β
I get a lot of different reports about this. Decided to answer a little.
1. I have long wanted to learn how to draw, only now there is an opportunity.
2. I'm not in real life, and I'm not going. I feel uncomfortable.
3. I like to draw on photography, and I want to come up with something unusual on myself.
4. This is a hobby for me
5. Cosmetics do not harm my skin, like other people. In order not to get angry, you need to monitor nutrition and take care of the skin, as well as remove cosmetics well. Cosmetics are not the main factor in the deterioration of your skin, but sweet yes. ,
I did not remember any more questions to answer them. You can ask below if it is interesting.
Favorite hobby β₯ οΈ
Interestingly, but I only have artists on the blog sit?
Write βοΈ WHO YOU? .
I'm curious to know. I'm a computer set operator, but as you understand, I like quite another πΒ
Who has been following me for a long time, then probably remembers that I have long wanted to do something more than just portraits.Β
And ... I'm going to this, and the fact that you can not see does not mean it's not.
Each portrait carries in itself something more than just the transfer of such functions. Portraits were painted by many great artists, as well as landscapes, still lifes. But I do not compare myself with them, BUT
Many for some reason with a mockery speak about those who draws "simply portraits".
And I do not understand this, why does someone depreciate one or another kind of art? Yes, even sometimes in a rough tone. Is the tree harder to draw? Or a bottle of water? No. It's not harder or easier, that's all. Simply everyone chooses what he has a soul for.
Why did I even decide to talk about this?
Probably because I'm tired of listening to phrases such as - Do you know how to draw something else? And see how some artists respond to portraitists.
I.
Do not forget that this is Steemit, not real life, but now it is a platform for the development of your business and other things.
People show only what they want to show.
I can draw animals, I can draw landscapes, I can draw a lot, BUT, do I need it on my blog? Sometimes, yes, but often not. Yes, and I push that I have certain things for which I spend my energy. And this is better than deceiving him and trying to match all your poems.
So, if you do not see anything, it does not mean that it is not.
And I'm not saying that you do not need to be a universal artist, you just do not need to just show it, prove it, explain it.
And what do you think?
Thank you for support! β€οΈ β¨
Great support! Thank you! Will be able to continue sharing your work with you π
I feel like drawing hours are pouring into something more ... I never imagine how I want to draw, it turns out all by itself.
Even now I'm on the verge of new discoveries and experiments! Let's see what happens next, I hope you will be with me and will also support, for me this is important β€οΈΒ Β Β
Its very nice of you to arrange this competition!
I like that you are starting to do longer posts, thats great!
Oh... I participate!
Eric, very nice of you)
I notice that some people post the post on Steemit and do not make signatures, well, in general, only tags.
For me, it was so natural to share my thoughts about drawing, materials and art "problems" that I no longer know how to lay out post and tags without the text π
I'm glad that you are participating. I once painted you, but promised to paint your portrait in color! π
Excellent work .......
I hope to see more of your paintings during this journey in Steemit.
I gave you a 100% vote, because I thought the paintings were beautiful!!!
