Memories
786,
I'm going through some old e-mails I sent to a friend. I came across this idea and thought I had forgotten about it... Still rings true to my ears.

"Empty your heart from the means of this world at best you can"
You know what I realized? Artists are the closest to death. not in the dramatic sense. But they are the ones who see this world as it truly is. Real. without all these illusions that we're surrounded with that makes us forgetful of what we truly are. It is like artists are conscious of our true human dimension. And through their work when we just meditate in front of it we escape, we wake up from this sedative state and become real, whole, true to our nature.

Short Trip
786,
"If you are a mountain, then I am a grain of sand. I have my whole life, to study, write, think, discuss and reflect. I am indebted to souls for being the sparks that set my heart and mind on the seeking path. It is to learn from everything, to see the gifts of God. This is the seed of love. The seed will grow into a tree and bear some type of fruit. When we taste the fruits then we shall know the real taste of love."

Work in progress
786,
Je suis en train d'illustrer mon premier livre.
El hamdouliLlah ca se passe bien pour le moment.
Si quelqu'un m'avait dit a l'univ' que dans le futur j'allais faire ce boulot, j'aillais me moquer de lui parce qu'honnetement j'etais la plus mauvaise en cours d'illustration. Je ne blague pas.
Ca se voit meme de ce croquis pour le livre, c'est tres classique comme mise en page.
Je me rappelle des profs qui me disait "faut faire ceci et cela" et je comparais mon projet avec celui des autres qui mettaient des heures a peindre une petite partie de la page... Woah. C'est quelque chose que j'aimerais bien acquerir... inch'Allah...
Well as they say, practice makes perfect!
I am illustrating my first book.
Thank God, it's going well.
If someone from college would've told me that I'd be doing this for a living I would've laughed at their face. Honestly, I wasn't really good in my illustration course. Not kidding. Teachers would tell me to add this or that and I couldn't conceive what they meant. Finishing is the key word. When I compared my work with the others, I was so amazed at how much effort they would put in one little part of the page. Wow. Something I would like to acquire... inch'Allah...
Will keep you posted :)

Middle Pages (2)
786,
2007, Caire, Egypte
Canson
-Phase inspiree de Frederic Boilet, Etienne Davodeau, Kan Takahama. Boilet a commence un nouveau mouvement de BD qui s'appelle "Le Nouveau Manga". Exprime le style japonais a travers des occidentaux. J'avais eu l'idee de faire une BD collective avec des artistes etrangers sur l'Egypte. Golo l'a deja realisee avec l'Association malheureusement et j'en n'etais pas consciente...
-Pick up and leave it aside, pick another thing up and leave it aside.
It is very hard being an "artist", if I can call myself that. It is very different than any other profession in the world. Your highs and lows, ups and downs are more pronounced then in other people: they hit harder.
It is also complicated to explain that we can't work like in regular office hours... or should we?
If I try explaining my five year plan to anyone it seems so sketchy, overreaching... is it?
-Glory be to God... this world never ceases to amaze me.
Don't want to lose track of my purpose in life.
