_{[BACK-posting some of the finer pieces from 2012/2011]}

..made lately to kick-start my traditional media groove and also as a reminder to myself why I draw, I guess~

To me, fire as an element represents passion.

The creative spark of life, warmth of inspiration. Raw emotion, strength and skill weaved into artwork (of all kinds, music/cooking etc) that can comes to life in a way that you can express outwardly to others, perhaps stir an emotion in the hearts & minds of other people.

And Carnival is my muse to translate imagination into a visible & physical form~ :'3

Our message to any/all forms of artist:

Don not back down. Create! Live, love and never back down from what you truly believe in and want out of life. You only live it once, and you damn well better make it count for something!

Find your Passion!
