'Stare Into Infinity' In Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist, he uses the Arabic word "Maktub" in multiple scenarios to remind us, that we play a crucial role in writing our own destinies The Portuguese phrase "A Luta Continua" which means the struggle continues was the rallying cry of the Mozambique Liberation Front (FRELIMO) during its struggle for independence from the Portuguese I constantly & intentionally bombard myself with perspective/consciousness expanding experiences aka always reading some novel books (pun totally intended!), engaging regularly with nature, with art, with artists, meditating, breathing in that good a$$ prana, & interacting with my fellow gods & goddesses of the cosmos Beginner's Guide To Infinity, is my attempt to capture all these endless sources of inspiration & the inexplicable 'randomness' which I've encountered along my journey, in a series of semi-abstract hand drawn snapshots. For me, each piece & its content hint at a magic infinitely larger than words or thoughts can encompass But anyway, hope you vibe with this ever expanding series, & hit me up if you wanna own your personal slice of Infinity #drawing #art #artist #ghana #africa #illustration #photooftheday #TGIF #blackandwhite #create #rtqlt (at Tema, Ghana)
