Sunflower

My first attempt at shading. Hope you like it! 

The picture was taken with a mobile camera.

Ah Sun-flower, weary of time,

Who countest the steps of the sun:

Seeking after that sweet golden clime

Where the traveller's journey is done.

Where the Youth pined away with desire,

And the pale virgin shrouded in snow:

Arise from their graves, and aspire,

Where my Sun-flower wishes to go!

-William Blake

Song composed by my friend

I hope all my fellow bloggers in blogland are happy, healthy and enjoying a wonderful life. I am doing good and having lost the inspiration to draw or arrange my thoughts in the semblance of an order, I have not posted for quite a long time.

In this post is a song - "Staring Angel" written, composed and sung by my dearest friend, Shiva. I would like everybody to listen to it and give your honest opinion and comments. Hope you all like it :))) but of course feel free to just say what you feel.

Paintings

I thought to share these paintings which are my favorite. I love the details of the reflections in the first painting.

“The only way love can last a lifetime is if it's unconditional. The truth is this: love is not determined by the one being loved but rather by the one choosing to love."
-Stephen Kendrick

Does unconditional love exist? No, I don't think so. :)

Disappointed Love - Francis Danby
