Description This one was super fun to draw all the swirls, and I'm really happy with how it came out.

Word order as follows:
We learn, as a child, to feel
the wind,
And exist in consciousness,
remembering our lost moments.

it was a little difficult to read at first (i especially didn't see the phrase 'the wind,') but reading the whole poem in your artist's comment cleared it up for me. a very simple but pretty poem! there's so much truth in that. and the swirls are lovely too. i love how it echoes the image of the wind in the poem.

Book reports must have been terribly difficult for you.

That said, this is a fantastically creative way to make poetry. I look forward to seeing what else you come up with in your literary defacing endeavors.  Great job.

MoonTheGreat [2012-06-22 00:39:35 +0000 UTC]

did you do it directly on the paper, or is it digital?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

mel-face In reply to MoonTheGreat [2012-06-22 19:04:54 +0000 UTC]

All of them (except the one in the nature book) are drawn directly in the book with india ink pens. C:

MoonTheGreat In reply to mel-face [2012-06-22 21:29:19 +0000 UTC]

do you doodle first with a pencil or do you just draw with the pen?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

mel-face In reply to MoonTheGreat [2012-06-23 16:11:49 +0000 UTC]

I always plan out at least the poem itself with a pencil. In this one, once I had the poem outlined, I kind of went to town with my pens, planning in my head, only. However, my other piece, Pace, took a LOT more planning and sketching because I wanted the hands to look realistic.
So, it pretty much depends on what I'm drawing.
Are you planning on giving found poetry a shot?

I wouldn't discount your abilities, found poetry is actually a LOT easier than it looks!
