so this is the second page I revamped in my old sketchbook, however, I regret to say my dog knocked over paint water all over it :( what a tragedy, but I was able to save it! ......mostly. But yeah, I guess we are gonna be forced to take the good with the bad
During last summer I spotted this dude riding round and round Vondelpark towing his big ass speaker so everyone can hear his selected music choices. funny but also a little annoying.
Whether the script in the background is an actual sutra is not the concern, even if it is, would it be readable to most? I question the use of lines in Calligraphy. Without the recognition of the exact words or meaning, can we still appreciate the quality and skills involved? Armed with a Chinese writing foundation, I adapted the use of the eight strokes (the basis of construction to Chinese character). The `writings’ resembles Chinese/Japanese writings but in fact, they are not. I needed a texture. With language as a symbol of culture, by visually adapting these kind of lines endears us to the image.
