Painting is like "libido"
Painting is like "go to restroom"
Painting is definitely "fun" and "having fun"
Painting is "hobby"
Painting is "life" and "living"
Painting is "passing down"
Painting is "leveling"
Painting is "needs"

.. and it goes on and on.

But from I was a child, I knew ink and pen, and carving for pencil colors. And when i grown up, I'd like to mix my own colors from my friend from Holland who gave me 'Rembrant' paint which from my standard, it was expensive paint.
In my opinion, people who give their lives to paint are smart, brilliant, and use their mind and sense greatly, people who compete each other but still one and harmonious.
Their world was weird, with overwhelmed ego because in the process of expressing their art, they will argue with their partners.

Musing for an inspiration, identity, and sometimes not understand their shelves, an excellent piece of art can be produced. Or worse, none of them was valuable.

My world is a creative world, to express whatever and wherever, our dimensions can not be bother with the some theory.

This was just my thoughts. You may have different opinion with me, but I hope we still have a harmony.

Good luck for expressing and creating with inovation.

Melukis itu ibarat "libido", ..
Melukis itu ibarat " buang hajat"
Melukis itu yg jelas "senang" dan "menyenangkan"
Melukis itu "hobby"
Melukis itu "hidup" dan "menghidupi"
Melukis itu "mewariskan"
Melukis itu "menaikkan level"
Melukis itu "kebutuhan"

...beberapa ungkapan diatas masih banyak lagi..

Tapi dari kecil saya mengenal tinta bak dan pena celup, sampai menangis minta2 pensil warna,...sehingga sekarang mengoplos cat sendiri bahkan teman dari Belanda memberikan oleh2 cat merk Rembrant yg harganya amat mahal menurut ukuran kantong saya, bahwa "orang-orang aneh" di dunia perlukisan, adalah orang2 yang cerdas, orang yg briliant, orang yang nalar dan rasa (feel) nya bagus, orang yg "berkompetisi" tetapi tetap "sehati" dan "harmoni"... Dunianya dunia yg aneh dunia yang super ego. karena dalam proses berekspressi kadang didukung Isteri atau suami namun kadang bersitegang dan kontra idea dgan isteri atau suami...

Berkontemplasi sekekedar mencari inspirasi mencari jati diri, kadang tak paham diri...

Sebuah karya bisa berharga tinggi, kadang tak dihargai sama sekali tetapi tak henti-henti berjibaku sampai kapanpun ruang dan waktu tak terbatasi...
Duniaku dunia berkreasi, berekspressi, apapun dan dimanapun tidak ada demensi yang hanya sekedar teory...

(Ini cuma curhat pribadi lho)
Boleh beda pendapat tapi tetap harmoni.

Semangat berekpressi dan terus berkreasi dengan inovasi....

Salam santun
