Awhile





Lately, I've been so occupied by school projects and weekly rehearsal until one particular point when I felt so worn out. I didn't feel like fixing rough animation or practicing another piece of music for upcoming course. I was searching any other activities that would keep me away from finishing all my homework, and suddenly, my mind suggested myself. "How about drawing?"

Then, I realized I haven't drawn anything on my sketchbook for a long time. A REALLY LONG TIME.  Like, how on earth did I abandon myself from drawing? It has been something that I've always done throughout my childhood times, my teenage years, all without being asked or forced. Something that encouraged me to pursue animation as a long life career.

I grabbed my pencil and start drowning myself with gesture drawings. Believe it or not, it felt terribly great to be back 'home'. Drawing on papers, it's very humane. It's not something you can achieve through clicks of buttons. It's personal.

Later, it also got me thinking of how great God is. He designs how body moves and functions. All those super complicated mechanism are hard enough just to be drawn on papers.

It's so supra-logical  to think how Almighty God creates every single one of us with distinctive features. Moreover, how He made us to be able to pour our mind through art, be it music or paintings. Even with the modern technology, people can't even generate a single thing that exactly works and feels the way we, humans, did.

Overall, it has been a truly relieving moment for me. Praise the Lord!
