TODAY'S JOURNAL KNOWLEDGE | Mistakes are beautiful.

~Make a mistake Expensive ~

CHECK OUT THE VIDEO OF MY TODAY'S ART DOWN THIS POST. 👇

Art journaling comes to mind where the basic art is needs to be portrayed. If you are afraid of getting your paintings or your thoughts to be projected then journaling is the most easiest way to practice it. As I prefer painting rather than the thoughts in my journal I always start with my paintings to build a context for my writing.

Basically for beginners painting on a journal is always very hectic because of the limited amount of frame and getting the page sections correctly. So for those who don’t want any of the limitations ..just take a sheet of a sketch paper and measure how bigger or how smaller you want to create your art in the page of the journal and simply paint or draw in that sketch book paper . Then rest of it is simple as you can always attach it to your journal where ever you like….

• You need to be prepared :

For the starting of an art journal ..I personally recommend watercolor or basic lighter acrylic colors.....thus this two types of colors can really hold out your paintings  in between the writings or thoughts and more importantly these two are really easy to use. In the process of painting remember not to overdo it. Things get really messy when you start to trough several colors to it.Try to keep it simple and soothing to your eyes.

Mistakes are great :

Finding the right amount of inspiration is one of the most trickiest things ,

But today I found mine in a way where most people give up. Mistake, that’s right I found my inspiration when I painted a tree in blue. It was really ugly from the point I was watching. But in a certain way I tried to recover it. I shared it with a friend and something she said will stuck in my head for life. She said that everything I do by mistake makes it more special and more beautiful in her eyes.

That made me think exactly the point of all these art journal. Do not afraid to Take chances, I realized that I just have to look from the different angle and it will be nicer, better and most important part of your art.

Then here what I did ,I just added more mistakes to give it company and after all it is my imagination..that is why painting is a freedom, you can do anything ,does not have to make sense at all.

Then using my watercolor I created a small painting of a waterfall far away from the mountains in the valley of rocks. Turns out my mistakes made me better at painting trees.

I attached it to the journal and started to fill it with one of the most important lesson I learned from my friend.

“Some of the Best things  in life are the  Mistakes”

To project the freedom of the valley I researched and found.

’A study reveals that living in a place from where you can see the water can reduce psychological  stress ,because viewing color blue have a calming effect regardless of age.’

Here what I achieved from all the mistakes.....

|| THE AWAKENED ||

Peace comes from within
do not seek it with out
~Lord Buddha

Years after years with watery eyes
Locked in a room a lonely mother cries.
All she wants was just a little sound
of an infant's laughter that knew no bound.
She was a queen with pride ,for her
king ,who was the worthiest guide.

Morn of a mother reached the highest kingdom.

Blessed with thousand delite in her womb.

Gift he received was the
greatest dream of his queen consort.

A white elephant brought
 a flower from Abraham's blossom
Towers of gold and lots more to bring.

Everybody knew he was born to be a king.

"Happiness is a journey
not a destination"

The child grew with happiness and care...
the king made sure no sadness anywhere near.
In the world of his own there will a tear drop by
Each time anywhere a poor soul dies.
Questions arose from deep dungeon of his heart.
The amount of emptiness torn his mind apart

Why the flower bloom, why the kingdoms rule?

Why the broken heart , why do it always hurt?

As ages past curiosity grows fast

Everyone comes and ,everyone goes ;

then why does it hurt more and more?

Silent room or crowded road ..

His soul searches for the peace boat,

King used to worry cause son of his own
Wants everything but the throne.
Tears and tears in the day that shadowed fears...
Oh! what a view the family witnessed
Painfully it was a sight of the richness.

Walking down the road for his longest ride ...

See ...there goes the changer of tide.

Prince who created history ,but never took his oath .

Became king of kings as a seeker of truth.

"You yourself as much as anybody
 in the entire universe
 deserve your love and affection."
~Lord Gautam Buddha

~ECHOS OF LIFE~

Loud and clear , freezing the air
Cutting through earth veins, it appears
Struggling, trembling each moment count
Being a chevalier knowing no bound.

Steady it cuts every peak and stones,

         In its path which erect by the earth bones

"Not all treasures are silver and gold "
~Captain Jack Sparrow

           The calmer it gets .......at the bottom of its core,

Being the breath of life... like ages ago.

Reflection of a thousand delight 

hanging from above 

framed by the trusted roots  to shove.

The forgotten corps, 

still holds the storm.

Standing like a guard , 

beyond the norm.

looking down its  

bounding the night sky.

Water which was desperate to flow 

now hidden behind disguise ,it just glow.

Scary as all time ,how funny it gets....

When you see a man scuffle for a miracle ...

Just round the bay.

Sometimes miracles are around you in your life...you just have to give it a chance to show up.
things that you desire to find are there things that making you bling..but soul that inspires you to find the miracle is indicates the most old picture frame of our body....the perfect focus of all ...The eyes.

But look what a surprise is given to us..as a human nature ..we travel miles and miles dig deeper and deeper to find our little sparkles of gold.That is exactly the man is trying to find around the shore of the delightful water by looking down.

But oh! what a shame there is a thousand diamonds staring into the eyes of earth ....He just need to lookup with a clear vision.
So set out for adventures...there are miracle everywhere is this world .....Just don't forget to lookup.

There is a need for appreciation for all of us…..it motivates to create more art ,happiness and delight. In order to get the right amount of appreciation  you need to share your creation.

Here in the social medias like Facebook,Snapchat,Whatsapp ,Instagram etc. there is no lack of platform to share your talent. 

But to showcase the perfect representation of it will create the amount of traffic you want.Now that is where you need the tricks of photography. And to be honest you don’t have to have any expert skills.Just follow 5 steps to click picture perfect.

5 STEPS TO CLICK BEST PICTURES OF THE PAINTINGS

STEP 1:	Find the table or the surface on which you can lay your painting or journal.Make sue its wooden or white colored, Now if you do not have one then you can always place a craft paper or a white art paper for effect.
STEP 2:	Push the table near the most sunlit area of your studio or room.
STEP 3:	Now take out all the tools and glitters that you use to create art just like paintbrushes ,pencil,washy tape,charms,dairys
STEP 4:	Take your painting or journal and place in onto the table….start to add the collected crafts to frame the painting in order to focus it.You can add paintbrush tips to place on it and other stuff also ,which don’t have to stay totally in the camera frame.
STEP 5:	After you are satisfied then take a picture with your camera or your phone.Make sure to click multiple photos from multiple angles ,that way you can always choose the best.

•  Note that you can always choose any background if you like.You can take out your paintings with you to catch the nature in background but make sure not to choose a congested picture frame.Because it can catch the focus of your painting depending on its category.

•   Also don’t overdo the picture frame with the craft it also snatch the focus of art.If you can check through the camera lanes while you setup then it will help a lot to figure out where to put things.Then here also you can personalize by adding stuff related to your art , my personal recommendation is dry flowers and leaves….depending on the painting or journal. 

• If you have professional light or DSLR Camera then you don't always need sunlight.

THE BROKEN VOW

November 9, 2017 | 

Today is our wedding day.............
I am proud today though these tears streaming down my face, I cannot stop.
Eight months of your profoundly tender, passionate, warm affection....

 your undivided attention...... your promises, made my heart skip a beat every-time with the kisses. And the ring.

It's gracious, darling.
No, no. I know, I know you had to go, you had to leave,
you had a fight.
You went to taste the victory again.
You went to bleed till you win.
Baby, you won.
When you came back to me, did you see me wearing the white? The bridal veil? The tiara? You saw everyone waiting. What took you so long? Why, when you reached finally , you looked pale, unhappy?
 All I can remember is the flag and flowers covered your body, you were being carried because you could not walk.
Sleep. You are too tired to wake up again. Now, no dreams of bloody battlefields, no nights of terror, no scars of wars, no roar of bullets.
The bullets had your name on them,you're a Hero.
Still invincible.

"Peace to each manly soul that sleepeth ; rest to eaach faithful eye that weepeth"

DESTINY THROUGH KEYHOLE

   ||Destiny through Keyhole||

You spend your entire life 

looking for something you believe.

It must be somewhere out there 

which will be solution to all your problems.

                                       Answer all your doubts and tears.

Clock ticks by.

‎ Grim reaper awaits you at the

 door of infinite extinction. 

The more you evolve the faster you fade.

Price of freedom is assured for all

THE BEAMING DEMISE

The Beaming Demise

Deep down inside somewhere. 
Somewhere you know.
Know where you belong.
We know where the path led.

Where the final sun set        
Sun that will never rise again.
Pages, that will never be read.


Memories, might never be brought back.
Lanes, will never be strolled over. 

Past is dim, dull......The smile 
Tale of woe is all you know?
Chuckle-heads, they snatched your breath. 
Dug and poisoned to its depth.

What utter pandemonium! 

What pure pain it might be! 

It's hidden, the truth, the secret...

Cannot be known. 

The letters, the words ...they bleed. 

Sketches wherever you see...the trust, the lie, the fright, the cry. 

Hope gave you bruises... Oh! How many times you tried.

Special or normal | Being yourself

It's fun to be normal ,makes everything seem so special.

Don't think of yourself as a special  person.You are just like the others. The difference you need that it is not meant to be special. It is the difference between knowing to be special...and ...becoming special. 

"Seashell indicates the purity and
Beauty of minimalism"

Either way makes you a normal person with abnormal wishes. Hence abnormality is also great in the normal mind a common sense.  Don't  afraid to be a commoner ....normal is what we lack in today's world.

 Everyone trying to be so special that specialty is what becoming the fragile and more predictable behavior of all. 

Among the people are surrounding us need to be asked if there are anything that makes them separate from this special circumstances, maybe a little interesting , maybe more natural , even weirder.As there are much more greater mystery than how to seize attention to ourselves.

Eventually that actually points out how much you give someone else the attention which you gained for yourself.Socialization  is bliss and it also includes yourself . 

Protecting yourself is just an easiest task you can do. I suggest  at times we all just be a normal human being to think like a special one in the world.
