# About me

Art has always been a part of my life. And because of that, you will find other important pieces of my life in my art.

I have had this account for six years, but I have taken many and long breaks from it. Life often has a tendency to get in the way of some things. But now I'm starting up again. Why I am doing it now is mainly because I can see a development in my art that I have hoped for for a long time.

In my art, you will find pieces of my life. And part of life is death. The concept of things passing away is a great inspiration to me, and I hope that you will see it and embrace it. Because we will all die one day, so remember to live: "memento mori".

Thankyou for your kind words, Youre very talented, even more than me! your art has so much impact and made with skill! and youre very wise to create art that has relation to death perhaps, to remind people to ponder on it thus live life to the fullest. Cheers!

That's exactly the feeling I'm trying to convey through my art. I'm so happy you recognized that thanks for your encouragement

My mother always said ponder death everyday.
Only death is certain. It is scary or sad but true. And somehow the good side is we look on today and see we are blessed to still love and we should make use of our time as if each day is our last. Some people only feel too much joy and bliss they forget everything else. Some things more important. Glad to see you are unique in all ive seen here on deviant art. Much solemnity in you. I admire that. My motto is carpe diem. Yours memento mori. Tandem.
Youre very welcome sister!

majspanda In reply to jyacini [2017-07-11 09:01:30 +0000 UTC]

I agree with you; even though joy and bliss is truly wonderful, at one point it might just start being escapism. I'm not saying we should walk around sad just because we can; but instead, as you say, just ponder death. You seem like an intelligent person, I hope we can stay in touch
And thank you for your kind words. I rarely feel unique, or like my art has an impact on people, but I'm so glad to hear you say that.
And also, aren't "carpe diem" and "memento mori" really just two sides of the same coin?

jyacini In reply to majspanda [2017-07-11 10:11:57 +0000 UTC]

Yes i think about death whenever i sleep. I pray that when i sleep i still wake up. Actually its a haunting feeling. I feel like i know i will die but before i do i must make a difference. It makes u a more practical person. You start seeing greater things with value. Like care and emotions and not things like... Nailpolish or material things in general, we all die turn to ashes but what remains is a memory of you and make sure its a good mmemory.
One time i felt so guilty and unworthy of life, i pondered death too often id get panic attack. But thats totally not good. (i have many problems haha especially with what happened to me recently) but anyway, yes those two should be the two sides of a coin. One we must keep in our pockets. You're one of the artists who make those still life with skulls. That theme. Hehe. Moreover your profile bio says it all. Its good people read it. Im sure people get scared or turned off like whaaaat? "shes talking about death and stuff and its too much" cause people are.. Naturally escapists. But youre so realistic, what u say is totally true. Let us dwell with happiness and remember death, so we will live better and rejoice in gratefulness today. 😄 youre intelligent as well. Yes im always online. Feel free to talk

Bara djur jag vet inte om du har märkt det men jag har inga människor i mitt galleri! Men hur länge har du hållt på med konst, har du några mål?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Penzone In reply to majspanda [2016-07-12 08:44:50 +0000 UTC]

Nja det jag syftade på var statyerna xD det är ju människor fast avbildningar, hm jag har inte haft någon hög takt alls men jag började för 7 år sedan. Mitt mål är nog att kunna rita mina tankar och idéer, kunna känna tryggheten i sin egen skicklighet utan att fumla i mörkret.

majspanda In reply to Penzone [2016-07-12 21:57:02 +0000 UTC]

Jaha du tänkte så! Ja jag gillar att måla statyer, det finns någon fascination där som spökar, haha.
Det låter som något alla konstnärer kämpar med Det spännande är att ju bättre du blir på att avbilda dina tankar, desto mer avancerade blir dina tankar. Hur gammal är du?

Penzone In reply to majspanda [2016-07-12 23:39:31 +0000 UTC]

Hehe coolt c: djur gillar jag mest dock, finns så råa känslor ibland, jag gick över till anthro mer just för att jag däremot gillar människans sätt att uttrycka känslor via kroppen och poser, det blir en bra blandning!
Jag är 26 ^^ Du var 19 eller? Och ja det är ju så, det är en frihet jag lockas till av att kunna rita sina tankar och dagdrömmar.

Tack! Jag jobbade, främst med hästar, samt lärde mig isländska och reste runt på ön.

hehe nice ^^ var det svårt att lära sig isländska?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

majspanda In reply to Penzone [2016-07-17 11:03:25 +0000 UTC]

Till en början, ja, som med alla språk! Men det är ju likt både svenskan och tyskan när det kommer till grammatiken, och det underlättade mycket för mig när det kom till att förstå alla regler. Uttal och rytm har jag aldrig haft svårt för i nya språk, och eftersom att jag hörde det väldigt mycket var det lätt att lära sig ord snabbt!
