This drawing is called 'Personality 4', made on the computer with my Wacom pen, in February 2004. It's the last drawing of a series of four, expressing the experience of not having a real personality, at least not a fixed one. It's possible to go into many different directions and be open to many influences.

My brother Maarten, the webmaster of my website, has made it possible that you can see this drawing now.

It's already 2.51 at night. Listening to the blues, sang by John Lee Hooker. Been searching for possibilities to publish my computer drawings on a homepage, but it seems like I need extra technical support. I will ask my brother Maarten who has made my website.
I have made a big drawing on thick white paper today with my black Rotring drawing pen, only lines from left to right, in one constant rhythm. I have been drawing like that in my little black sketch book where I make one drawing every night before I go to sleep. I like to feel rhythm when I am drawing, as if I am making music.

Found on www.talentdevelop.com

The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this:
A human creature born abnormally, inhumanely sensitive.
To them... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune
is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover
is a god, and failure is death.

Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity
to create, create, create -- so that without the creating of music
or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning,
their very breath is cut off...

They must create, must pour out creation.
By some strange, unknown, inward urgency 
they are not really alive unless they are creating.

Time for our mystery recipe

Pita bread with steak, feta and oregano. I can't decipher the rest of the information, but it's nice to fantasize if 'pomidorow' will be tomatoes and what kind of vegetables 'pieprzu' and 'puszka' will be. I found this when typing in 'stek', my last name, in Google's search machine. The name of this sandwich sounds like they don't want it no more... Srodziemnomorski... It's fun to spell these words out loud. Are they Russian, Polish or from the Balkan?
