Painting is just another way of keeping a diary... Pablo Picasso quoted.

Indeed, one painting is like one page from a diary. Pain, hope, tears and joy.. all of these are perfectly written on it.

Silently and secretly deciding to whom i want to dedicate my next painting is the only part i find most enticing. To paint while thinking about that person or basically anything you have in mind is so... i dont know, sacred?? *ugh nevermind, me and my weird thought again*

But sadly, it's a double-edged sword. i mean, i desperately want to create something with those brushes and color tubes and everything... but i don't feel IT, I don't feel the THING, it seems all wrong. Talk about bad vibes!! Driving me nuts.
