Additionally, my addiction sucked the creativity out of me. For too many years I was a slave to my addiction. Spent the rest of my time trying to stay employed in corporate america. Now that I’ve been sober for 66 days, I find a pull from my creative side. I don’t know if this will amount to anything or not, but I want to give it a fighting chance. It is kind of hard to put into words.
Congratulations on the return of creative desires and 66 days!!! I am working through a block myself.
I hope you are able to enjoy nature still without breaking quarantine! No access here. It’s hard enough without quarantine, I miss the woods.
I love understanding how things work as well, especially cameras, light waves, sound waves and people. Hence my doing experimental portraiture, and musicianship. Light and sound have so many incredible properties, overlaps and effects on (and origins in) the human experience! Anything can become a language. Hehe apologies if this is unwarranted, I get excited about this stuff!
Yesterday I converted a portrait of my friend L (incredible cellist and artist) into a drawing, scanned it then started digitally painting on the sketch - I love working with/for other people making art, though I miss making art for the sake of saying something that simply needs to be said. I am trying to get my bravery back and to stop feeling burnt out. I am hungry for non-transactional friendships and experiences … & Drinking is no longer an escape, it’s a fear making cycle that is preventing me from being real because it is creating it’s own reality for me,… Screen Shot 2020-03-25 at 6.05.22 PM|451x499
I also post drawings and doodles on my personal one: @evavilapach
They’re not great, but help me cope with boredom and anxiety. They really come from within.
I’m a music teacher by trade, and sometimes I’ll do projects where I take different lines that people give me and I compose them all into a song. Does anyone want to try? Just whatever you would like for lyrics, a line or two, and I’ll compose them into a song and share it here
