Day 7

You know, perusing through some of the artist's work on Redbubble got me thinking....... here we have some incredibly talented people with fantastic art, creating magnificent work....... and yet we do not see them earning millions and having fame and glory. Same goes with most musicians, especially those that play in orchestras. It takes years of diligent practice to master their instruments, but if it doesn't entertain the majority of the world's unconscious population, nobody notices or rewards them for their art.

Inspired by this optimism, I just closed my eyes and drew the face staring back at me. It was as if he wanted to be drawn, the image just stayed there in my mind, clear as daylight.......until I was done, and then it disappeared..... Kind of reminds me of an anime face, but perhaps it's more than that. Perhaps the combined image of millions of struggling artists worldwide, trying to make a living out of what they really enjoy.....their art....their passion....their lives...
