Description
Part 2 - In Between > SecretStruggling for perfection in this mechanical world
Don't tell anyone
That's not what I'm looking for
About A5 sketchbook ink drawing, a bit of coloured pencils
Inspiration "Last goodbye" by Billy Boyd
Now! Who besides me thought that the 100 Themes Challenge is dead?
That's so strange that I needed so much time to ink this one - the sketch was ready for months... oh well
Have you ever thought, my dear, that running towards better technology we're somehow forgetting about the simple ways to achieve happiness? But don't tell anyone about that - you would be ridiculed
So let's all pretend that is what we're looking for
This is a part of my 100 Themes Challenge
Off to work this second part at last!

To podoba mi się szczególnie. Bez słów opisuje dokładnie to, jak czuję się na obecnym etapie życia. Z jednej strony mam bardzo dużo do czynienia z technologią, ale czuję, że ona nie jest częścią mojej natury, że mnie zatruwa, również fizycznie. Z drugiej strony ciągnie mnie do tych pół, łąk i lasów, do natury, która jest antidotum na technologiczną truciznę dla mojego organizmu. Jednak bieganie boso po lesie za białym lisem nie jest już ludzkie. Przez anioły w tym rysunku rozumiem głosy, istoty materialne i niematerialne, podpowiadające rozwiązania, a jest ich tak wiele, że zagubienie jest tym większe. Poza tym widze tu kontrast między duszą i ciałem, sacrum i profanum. I jeszcze wszystko podkreslone kontrastem wizualnym między bielą i czernią. A ten zielony ptak to iskierka nadziei - nadziei na wolność. Na uwolnienie się od decyzji i rozterek, również nadziei na odnalezienie własnej drogi życiowej.
No, i są UFO, a jak UFO to od razu mi się kojarzy z "Z archiwum X".

wow... dziękuję moja droga za tak wnikliwy komentarz 
czyli wygląda na to, że nie tylko ja czuję się zagubiona w świecie obecnych wartości - od razu mi lepiej
na pewno się spotkałaś z symbolem trzech mądrych małpek (szczegóły -> pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trzy_m%C… ) - wykorzystałam go w formie aniołów, bo lubię anioły 
uwielbiam interpretacje i to, że każda osoba może znaleźć własne skojarzenia i aluzje 
muszę przyznać, że masz całkowitą rację
.... ale może miał, tylko tego nie wiedział?... 
i wyjaśniam - to nie ufo.. to mój ulubiony model statku zainspirowany z "Battlestar Galactica"

Nie ma za co, to była przyjemność. Teraz faktycznie widzę ten motyw małpek i tak, znam go od dawna, ale tutaj zupełnie nie skojarzyłam. Obejrzałam każdy fragment tego obrazka, a nadal jest w nim tyle tajemnic. Właśnie dlatego tak lubię szczegółowe obrazki. Co do UFO - to totalnie nie znam wyglądu tego statku, więc dla mnie był to zdecydowanie "niezidentyfikowany obiekt latający" (w sumie jak wszystkie nisko latające samoloty przy wjeździe do Krakowa, po 6 latach przestałam zwracać na nie uwagę, ale na początku, gdy zauważałam je kątem oka, za każdym razem myślałam, że to jednak coś niezwykłego).

ha! czyli część tajemnic i tak się przed Tobą ukryła 
właśnie byłam zaintrygowana wyglądem statku podobnego do bączka
a niestety samoloty to standardowy widok także w mojej okolicy, więc rozumiem brak zwracania na nie uwagi

Epic you chose the wheeping willow and the clouds. So epic to have the variety of weather around!

isn't that the most pleasing view you can have when you close your eyes and try to relax?
just a little sip of nature's blessings
aww that's so kind of you to say so my dear

I thought that the 100 Themes Challenge was dead! 
It is a highly guarded secret. It is a pity that many people bet on comfort rather than balance with nature, but one day we'll regret this, or we are already doing?
As always a nice concept!

by the truth, I think about this every day... - exactly about this! I mean I feel so weird for other people when I will say "do not support this system, it's going to destroy us and all around and important is our souls, feelings, love for each other, be thankful for your life..." - and no, I'm not catholic, I'm no religion... but I believe in more than it will all ends by the death
And I think we are stupid (like people), our planet would be nice place for living - so amazing places, nature and animals! We have things for our happiness, but we do all it wrong....

With all respect, is it so easy to declare nature and animals nice and gentle? Not even for pure vegetarian beings that may be true.
It may not be as nice to live without technology as you might expect.
There are people that still have to shovel haystacks and such other animal food and dung by hand like in medieval times. It's not healthy and not nice, if you think otherwise then come ahead to worlddevelopment's just since 3 months rented farm (for testing development aid & base technology) and try it yourself. You'll love technology. It's just so weird because it is so incredible complicated. Just feels "strange".
It's actually epic, consider Harry Potter magic - it's really outstanding technology! I love it so much!!
Without technology, there'd not be enough quality milk, break, cakes, cookies and such for us to buy it - automatically an upper class would arise that can afford it - e.g. the nobility. Given by birth.
Often it is seen as given that we have civil rights and an idea of freedom and all goods in masses.
I'd miss these vegetarian gummi bears, high-quality milk, corn and nut products and all the other achievements.
It has cost mankind so much effort - it had to be fought for: both peacefully and by being tied into neverending wars - for most people that died this was out of their power. Did you ever feel what it means to be powerlessly surrendered to events. Do you like if you are late by hours because e.g. your bus had a puncture or other problem?
This is what arbitrariness and slavery and serfdom and wars and such feel like. Just much worse. Hopeless. So come on, we must hold together. World citizens must work together individually and take action to make this world a better place. Get people to think, (philosophical) questioning, ...
Civil rights and freedom and wealth is not achieved automatically. The same is true for love - just that love is the most powerful invention of all times!! I love true love so.
The beauty, wonderful and epic nature and the good hearted lovely beings is what makes this alll so much worth living and dying for! See all these artists share their tedious and so lovely works? They do it for a reason. It may be love. And I love them/you for that!

What fenifire expresses in my opinion, just builds upon this base without questioning the idea of technology in itself - it rather criticises how this drive for perfection is draining us. Engineering is only one example of how to get drained. Because technology doesn't work as expected if it's not perfectly correct.
And if it works for you, then it doesn't mean the function fulfills the desires and imagination of others. It's all quite complicated. What will people think - oh I want to make it all perfect. And bam, there's life, it's not perfect. But we can still make it epic! If we hold together as enthusiastic friends and world citizens.
Whereas nature already looks like perfect to us. It had enough time to get there and it's still just looking as if it were perfect. It's still an ongoing process called evolution.
Last but not least there is a connection between nature and humans. Just like inbetween beings - one can feel it. It's like love. Feeling connected and in sync. It's actually about feelings and emotion and true friendship. Me - I'm so hopelessly lost myself in terms of true love - and yet I feel so connected to the good hearted beings that I will do all within my power to ever on help you make this world an ever more epic and wonderful world, e.g. by trying to create Harry Potter technology.
