First Experimentation with black A4 paper, darn sight harder to see the lines without the light angled correctly (or because i use a standard HB pencil lightly) but I got there in the end and learnt a lot along the way.

Art just seems to sharply improve when under strong emotions. A few more on the way, and may re-draw on white paper for better appreciation of image as its not so clear.

This one drawn to 'Radio' - by VNV Nation a band I truly admire for their lush music and inspiring lyrics that touch the soul.

Makes me feel no longer alone, thinking of friends so far away from me or just being in company of others who feel the same way i do

"Radio"

Word will never say enough,

they are just born of hope that someone will even listen.

In this solitude of hearts, in the traces that echo through the ether.

Tied to meanings, bound to fate, reassured by sounds that echo across the airwaves.

Tuning through the waves of faint and distant signals, hoping someone´s there.

Oh have we tried too much, traded innocence for promises of greatness.

Left to search, left seeking out for a part of us that is no longer there.

With all the prowess we possess, exchanged the greatest of ourselves for isolation.

gladly we smile and carry on, unaware of the solitude we hide inside.

Broadcasting live around the world, on the air in every land, on every frequency.

across the surface of the earth, to the furthest reach, this is our live transmission.

To all the people of the world, unrelenting, for all who are receiving us.

From every station on the earth, loud and clear, this is our live transmission.
