Quote of the day

Most of us don't listen with the intent to understand. We listen with the intent to reply. - Stephen Covey

TODT: Check in with yourself once a week

Actively working towards a long term goal can be difficult. If you’re like me and occasionally find yourself disillusion / disheartened, then it could be a good idea to Keep a journal of your thoughts. 

Or better yet, check in with a close friend once a week to measure the progress you’re making toward your goals and to keep in touch with your overall sense of wellbeing.

One thing that i’ve noticed since leaving uni is that you no longer have that default support structure. No, now it’s just you. All by your self.  But it doesn’t have to be!

Word of the day: Sonder

n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk.

Word of the day: Yugen

Yugen (n.) Japanese: an awareness of the universe that triggers emotional responses too deep and mysterious for words.

           Graphic tribute to Star Wars The Force Awakens project

Title:  “The Light Side”

This poster is a graphic tribute to the 1st episode of the new Star Wars  trilogy. I imagined a kind of propaganda poster for rebel alliance and choose to paint a portrait of Finn ( one on the main characters of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” ). I’ve wanted to create a kind of Graphic background that would symbolize the “light side of the Force” so the graphic pattern of the background is created with almost only curves and natural elements in opposition with the 2nd poster of the serie which features Kylo Ren & the dark side of the Force.
