Delvaux started creating surrealism in 1933. He wasn't that interested in the political aspects of the movement. He claimed his works had no meaning or story behind them. He just wanted to create works that where dreamy and poetic. Tho there are similarities shown through his works.

Sensory Walk
Time us an Illusion!?! You don't see the birds, dogs, deer and Squirrels
walking around tapping their watches....
Personification is not deemed in the natural world. Only realism and
life. There is no egotistical value in an animal? Or is there?
They don't house them selves in amongst concrete blocks with ridged lines
and angled corners....
Time is an illusion to humanity, once free from a shedual or time table or
plan or data or building. We stand timeless
Soaking up all the noises around us be they nature or machine... Nature
calls us all to come shine in her wings as they fly free across the
cozmoz. The idea may make you laugh but apart from our Mother nature we
Die....

After conversing with my friend, we decided to keep the hand holding the sword so as well as the ink mark. So I incorporated the hand on to my sword. Thus started my journey on learning how to use the software Gimp on my PC. I was clueless so this took me a while. Once I figure it out I became well versed in how to create digital collages with the software. Just Google Gimp and you should be able to find a free download. There are plenty tutorials on how to use it on Youtube.

Nature and its connection to me...
Nature to me is the life blood of my soul. I am in awe of it everyday as it mesmerises me with its wonderful enchantment. I pity over Natures destruction as we humans flourish in our bubble of technology. Yet I still go on living the life of consumerism and capitalism.

Breaking loose with the Palette Knife
First photo is a 16"x12" Acrylic on Canvas.
Second photo is a 10"x8" Acrylic on board.
So here I am experimenting with my palette knifes... I have never really been brave enough to just let go of the constraints of the paintbrush to the knive.
Here I am today and already I feel that it's a worthy thing to keep experimenting with. Originally the one of the canvas was an attempt at a random landscape purely made up of course. I was stuck with it as I felt I was making loafs of mistakes with it. As soon as I started using my knife I felt a huge improvement it has brought it alive.
good
I'll definitely be doing more of this.

Crystals and photo editors
So playing around with my crystals, I find their beauty mesmerising. Threw em through a symplectic photo editor and come up with some possibility for compositions.
