The best relationship art depicts the highs and lows of the authentic couple.

Shakespeare...Declassified
I'm about to share about something rare, personal, unusual, hopeful and presently at risk of fading into "the stuff that dreams are made on."

Painting on people
The creative project that brings me the most relaxation and joy is a bit out there. Dare I say it is something that one would not expect. It is not something that I can just go find a group that enjoys the same things to talk about. It requires a lot of skill and is a work in progress for me.

Impressionism 2.0
If there's such a thing as being simultaneously famous and completely unknown, Carl Parker is it. It's no surprise really, he's been a mass of contradictions and defying odds since the day he entered the world.

Death by 138,500 Stitches
I have never understood the true meaning of the word “relax.” Even when I’m supposed to be taking time to myself, when I’m supposed to give myself room to breathe between my two jobs, I can’t just take things easy.

Why Fine Art Auction is Booming
The Fine Art Auction Market continues boom. It seems that every day, another auction record is established for "the highest price that was paid by the name of the artist here". So, what does that mean for the painting he bought to match the sofa of him a few years ago? It can increase in value, or it can be as watching as the artisanal project full of pasta from the son of him.

Cultivating Creativity
I could make art every day for the rest of my life, and never run out of ideas. Not only have I learned to draw in many styles, to use paints and charcoal and a multitude of materials, but I have trained myself to see limitless inspiration.

"Ask the Animals"
Since antiquity, man has wanting to talk with animals. Yet if one says they are able to, as in hearing them, speaking with them, and getting pictures transferred like a motion picture, then one is called a freak, weirdo, liar, new ager or basic lunatic…

Custom Craft Kits
I'm a Textile Designer and colours have always inspired me. They are the first thing I think of when starting with something new and the sight of a good colour combination or pattern always fills me with joy. I believe each colour is responsible for eliciting a very specific cognitive response in most people, which is why I find generic offerings in large craft stores very depressing. They range from circus brights to lonely cat lady greys. Most craft materials are in very odd shades that would bring no joy to anyone. There are a million beautiful shades on planet to be inspired from and it always surprises me when I am offered so little in choice.

My passions
I do have many passions and somehow It is very difficult to separate one from another as I need to do them all to feel complete in the way that I choose the language how to communicate and how to express myself. The more I actually work on one I tend to discover the new over and over again. One of my biggest passion is painting that for many years now I do in a very limited way as of lacking enough support for it. So I usually create it from a medium that I can afford and usually it leads me to find new ways how to deal with it and how to approach it. My ways of painting differ a lot with years and as It is abstract painting the environment the people around me the place and the medium I can use have a huge impact on how it directs my way of gestures into it. It is a kind of suffering when you need to focus on many different things in life instead to go for your very first passion that creates who you are and how you live. Not having financial freedom doesn't let you speak through it as clearly and as progressing as you wish too as you need to stop and make pauses that often leads to starting things over and over again from the new. I think it is my strongest of passions where I can fully dive into discovering myself my connection with this world and people. It is kind of an archieve of experience to live in this world. Besides the traditional way of paintings, I create digital art that I call digital paintings or murals or patterns. It is one of the ways that let me express and dive into the idea of expressing the virtual life and experience of it even the everyday impact of things on me. The making of digital paintings by me lead me to actually also create patterns from mural and design I turn to surface designer for clothes and home decor. However, creating patterns daily for many years I can not say I am earning my living with it. The fashion world is one of my main drive and was at first even to my paintings approach at first as of digital painting and pattern surface making I turn to create things differently and leave the painting for its true abstract way of experiencing the real. While in digital painting I create more the analytical way of seeing the world. Nevertheless non of these two are monetized or bringing me any good income to survive in this world. I just need to create daily to digest this world people emotions and tell things in a different way of viewing and gathering the knowledge.

Its bigger Than Religion
My passion in this human life above all other things is art. Art in every waking moment is both the raging fire and fuel of my existence. Art whether created in nature as the byproduct of a complex sentient being composed of nothing more than an ethereal cosmological heft, or art created by a mere mortal who has been stricken with a flash of inspiration that leads him or her to create not just a structure or an object that will fade with the passing times of its creator, but a human experience so novel that it will affect the shape of human history. Art has the ability to shift the paradigm around societal expectations that sometimes dictate an artists ability to communicate a vision with a world who may feel a desire to experience what one could call, a peek beyond the veil of normality, while still not being ready for the sometimes perplexing constructs that are oftentimes formed on the leading edge of socially acceptable. Primarily I choose to express my passionate artistic energy is through the art of storytelling. My passion for storytelling is as natural to me as my heartbeat. The passion I have for creating stories overflows ever abundantly and without end. I feel very lucky that there are so many mediums through which I can channel my energy. I have been writing stories since I learned how to write full words and sentences. I became obsessed with storytelling after reading the first page of the first comic book I ever read. I was astounded that I was still allowed to read books that had all of my favorite superheroes, and on top of that there were vividly colored pictures of the heroes that I loved so much. I fell in love in an instant and have been dreaming of being a comic book writer ever since then. I as of now have what will be my debut comic book in the works. Though comics is one of my primary mediums for expressing my joy of storytelling it is but of multiple. Being a 29-year-old millennial I have not only a joy and knack but also what seems to me to be a borderline addiction to the art of long-form microblogging, which at first glance may sound like an oxymoron until you indulge in the experience of Twitter.

Wait, What About the Illuminati?
It's honestly really hard to describe it. When someone asks me what I do, I never have an answer. I just have a list that I rattle off until they pick something they like. I never wanted to limit myself to “a thing”. I love to label things, yet I haven’t got a truly defined label myself. No particular look, no set group. You get it. I’m just me. It draws people in, you know?

The Stories I Told Myself
I remember the last time my mom read me a bedtime story. I was a four-year-old nugget curled next to her on the gray fabric couch, a light illuminated behind us, as she leafed through a book of fables, myths, and legends. The one she chose to read to me was about the Great Flood that populates the backstory of some religions.
