Dear friends,

this is the first piece I made with oil pastels after some time.

Although I'm not 100% happy with it, I thought I share it anyways. Especially after I found this quote on twitter the other day:

Thanks for watching and have a great saturday!

Couldn't agree more with the title! Hah.

I used to draw a lot when I was younger, however I do not anymore so often. Or actually.. At all. I guess I just have different things now to put my mind on - or I just started caring a whole lot less, hehe.

Either way, I always envy the creatives. I really like your work here. You have my upvote!

Thanks a lot for your comment! Steemit really helped me rediscovering my creativity. Maybe you should also give it another go and see what happens :-)

I actually tried that but didn't work out for me as such actually, hehe. I am glad it worked out for you though!

Thanks, I just saw some of your sketch-posts and I'm quite impressed. But you're successful anyways, so just keep it up!

P.S.: Funny, that we both were at Steemfest1 and didn't even met. Are you attending Steemfest2?

Thanks :D

Oh wow, really. And yes! I definitely will be attending SF2 - will I see you there?

Definitely! Looking forward to seeing you in Lissabon :-)

This quote is brilliant!
Art really can be theraphy. I think al creativ work is theraphy, like music, poetry, drawing, building etc.
Also god work you did there, you have a really unique style i like this.

Thanks a lot for your feedback! I agree that art really helps in a therapeutic way. But it also confronts the artist with the fear of not being good enough. I guess, when this fear rises up, one should just not pay too much attention on it but rather continue creating the next piece.

Absolutly true. I expirience this today when i worked on a project for a friend. In befor i start i was thinking about if i can handle this...but i started, worked with passion and im happy with the result so i write a blog about it :)

I can also see this passion in your artwork.

Thanks for mentioning your post about your collaboration with Rachel. I'm amazed by the result!

Yeah i am following her for long time. Like her perspektive on the life and wanted to support her some how.

Glad you like this drawing 😊

Happy Saturday, and I love the vibrant scene you've created! :)

Ah, glad you do! Thanks for letting me know.

Nice, I like it, and I have yust seen that tag "my-work" for the first time. Actually I think it should always be the work of the author...but here in steemit very often it is not.

Thank you! You're quite right about the use of the "my-work" tag. It is still ok to post images, that are under creative-commons or in the public domain (as long as you don't claim, it's your work). As I also post a series about documenta and other art exhibitions (where I photographed other artist's works) I just wanted to distinguish this post from the others. Usually I use this tag on twitter, and not very often here...

Ich find ja den Zettel genial, genau so ist es, 100%
Wenn wir in einer Woche in Bonn sind, hättest du evtl Lust auf ein Caffee ??? (Ich trink zwar keinen aber du weisst schon, was ich meine )

Ja klar hab ich Lust! Lass uns auf jeden Fall treffen. Wir können und ja mal über die Privatnachrichten im Chat koordinieren.

good!

Thank you!

Happy Saturday
