Art contest: Abstraction - my entry for the great contest of @danielfs - 'SBBWA Challenge Week 6'

Though having registered in steemit at the end of last year, I started to be active since about 3/4 days ago, so I'm a newbie here on this platform. Today I saw the cool art contest of @danielfs:
https://steemit.com/abstraction-contest/@danielfs/art-contest-abstraction
and decided to post an entry with my piece of art.

It is called "metamorphosis of my blocking believes".

I used following tools for my drawing: black fineliner, highlighters and colouring pencils.

First I chose my theme and this was my mental block regarding an unfinished project. So I concentrated deeply on my topic and started to wildly scratch with my black fineliner about 4 seconds on my drawing paper to dissolve my inner stress with the topic and this looks like the following picture:

After my doing my "catharsis" on the paper I started rounding, harmonizing, connecting and integrating the confusing lines into a new whole and integrated figure until the original sketch isn't recognizable:

In order to bring more harmony into my feelings and the picture I chose to draw some circles into the figure:

In order to unite parts of my theme which belong together I intuitively started colouring the related fragments:

To transform my blocks into a positive outcome I finished my picture by using field lines to connect everything more deeper and give it more flowing and supporting energy:

Through the process of drawing I got much more relaxed regarding my topic and gained new insights. Thank you for viewing my drawing and thank you very much @danielfs for hosting this contest.

The first lines were the more expressive, the result of the catharsis. However, you did well organizing your thoughts to bring harmony during the process. At the end, the transformation of your feelings became an awesome artwork. thanks for participating!

Thank you very much for your eye-opening and inspiring feedback dear @danielfs:-)

That is an amazing process and a fabulous end result. I am fascinated by the stages of this work. I want to do my own, and unfortunately I already have so many things to do today! For now I will have to be content to just admire your work and that of the others. Which is not so bad, as it is great work.

That is an awesome feedback from you, thank you so much dear @powerfulwonders:-)))

WOW!!! I LOVE this process that you used and shared here with us, @zuckerzombie!

Amazing how you used your emotions, fully expressed them using your chosen medium, then harmonized, synthesized and integrated. It felt like art meditation. LOVE it! I, like Paul, will have to do some of this.

Bless you! Will be FB/tweeting this.

Wow your powerful feedback touches my heart dear @angelacs, thank you very much!:-))

Didn't FB/Tweet right away yesterday and forgot... but just did. Thanks for your beautiful art work, @zuckerzombie!
