Let Things Fall and Break|| Art of Movement series

I rub my frozen hands.
The joints slowly stiffen
They solidify in one position
Never to move again


I wrap them around a cup
Of my favourite tea
A moment of relief
I force them to pick up the pen
And chalk up the words.


Mangled letters,
thoughts crossed out,
spilled ink.


I force them to work
Clumsy
They let Things Fall and Break.


Today I let them.

How many chances do we have, how many attempts?
Who keeps an eye on the outcome?
Sometimes we only pretend to try
so as not to appear hypocritical


We give good advice that we never take ourselves.
It is much easier to look good than to do the right thing.


Do we really want to do the right thing?
Or do we want others to fail as we do?
It's easier to endure a lack of success when we see only failures around us.
A cool compress of other people's pity on burning shame works, but only for a short while.

About the drawing

Today another instalment of a collaboration with @samsmith1971. Thank you Sam, it was lovely and inspiring one!

Let me know what you guys think.

I've been lacking confidence lately when it comes to drawing. I've been working on a another character from Dune. I am so far very unhappy with the results. I destroyed another drawing today. I lost my joy of working with the pencils somewhere along the way.

I will try again tomorrow.

Black paper and white watercolour crayons are amongst my favourite art mediums:)

I very glad you like my work, cheers!

"I like doing many things. Just cannot decide what I like best!"

It's the same story with me. . .😏

Thank you for visiting my blog @vragolana71!

I don't think we really must choose something, and stick by it. Seems to be you know... boring!

Fascinating concept and very nicely done. Hang in there! Don't let the art get you down too much 🌦.

Thank you very much Ema!. Without Sam this piece wouldn't happen, so all thanks goes to her, really. But I am very glad I could be part of it:)

Yeah, art is not very stable thing to stand on :D
