these hands

Feb 08, 2010 23:50

I got a very deep cut on my left thumb last Friday while mounting an artwork, and instantly I felt so disabled. I couldn't do so many things I was used to doing, and it still hasn't healed yet. Which led me to think deeply about how we must really take good care of them as they're one of our most important assets, and what our hands are capable of doing.



Your hands. What will you do with them?




Your hands are capable of giving life or taking them. Which to do, is entirely up to you.

Very, very random idea that came to me when I was taking a bath just now lmaooo. The whole idea sparked when I was having difficulties because water would sting my injury, and from then on I thought about a lot of things, which led to this. About 1 1/2 hours in total?

It's very rough and loose I know, but I have no intentions of polishing it up for now... unless I decide to revisit the idea in the future? This is my way of relieving all the pent up frustration, emotion and urge to create that's been trapped in me for so long. To be honest, my line of work does NOTHING for this side of my soul that wants to pour out all the ideas in my head. Day by day I draw things which I have to force my hand to move in a different manner, and I get no release because I drop dead on my bed the instant I get home. So in these rare moments, I say fuck it to my fatigue and just let loose in Photoshop, as if possessed.

Goddamn I really miss drawing. I envy you folks who still have the time to freely create without any barriers at all, and have time on your side.
