I thought I start posting wips. I’m currently working on this... recently I’ve been looking at it more than actually trying to work on it... something is not quite right and I can’t work it out. Any suggestions?

This afternoon’s doodle. I call it ‘The Art of Being Lonely’

I’m trying to get better at pencil drawings, I feel like I’m cheating when I smudge my charcoal.

Inspired by Elizabeth Gaskell’s ‘North and South’

sometimes i think about how constellations are an entirely man-made construct and don’t actually exhist inherently in nature. i mean, the universe just gave us stars, and we saw art and myths and stories in them. the capacity that humans have for seeing purpose in the incidental makes me realize just how lonely we are on this planet, desperately searching for meaning elsewhere in the universe.

Nothing ... I repeat... NOTHING surpasses this literary and cinematic gem.

u know what makes me cry..... that one van gogh quote about life changing for the better..... “many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. and it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘what do i care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ yes, evil often seems to surpass good. but then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. one morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. and so i must still have hope.” yeah..... Crying....

From now on, can I just say *the stars are not in position* every single time I don’t want to do something?

Thanks.
