    i like your anxiety visits

    a lot

    the little hint of red in there is stunning to say the very least, as are the streaks

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks lys for noticing the details… it was short but very useful release… : )

  • theyellowfury

    theyellowfury

    We get crows all year round. They’re cool to watch. And one day last August I watched out the window as twenty or thirty blackbirds fought in the trees outside.

  • mimi yoon replied

    should have taken some pics or have you?... must’ve been quite noisy too… :P

    Fabuloso Mimi! Such great movement and energy. Seems that anxiety works for you. LOL!

  • theyellowfury

    theyellowfury

    It was and I didn’t. I was busy doing something. Cool though. At one stage one of them flew in and kicked his buddy off the branch he was on and he tumbled down about ten foot through the branches cawing the blackbird equivalent of “you fkn bastard you.” or that’s what I thought at the time. It all seemed pretty amiable.

    don’t know how you do it mimi.
    I hope drawing this relieved some of your anxiety visit,
    i like it, the crow has so much character, and so much detail too, even in his feet.and that eye..

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you so much jared…
    took 20 minutes because i painted the bird three times… first two times, it was too big… i had to wet and wipe it off twice…

    Black bird singing in the dead of night. Quite lovely Miss MiMI. Some of us should be so lucky in being half as creative in our down time!

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you mr. david… we all have our own moments… i am more creative in darker moments but most creative when my world is wet…

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks jonny… it’s the combination of rough canvas texture and some old cheap brush… and of course, my handling of ‘em… :P

  • chemis

    chemis

    i can feel it; a few moments in my creative head always clears the troubles away.
    i like the brush strokes – very crazed and zesty

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks chemis… what will we do without our creative mind…
    i always love your comments chemis… crazed is the perfect word… and zesty adds a cherry on top.. : )

    Humm Miss MiMI when your world is wet??? Oh that sounds so romantic to me my friend! “I am more creative when my world is wet she told him as they kissed” ” But only in my darker moments as she led him to the bed” Oh my Miss MiMI you make a mans mind wander all over don’t you!LMAO

  • mimi yoon replied

    i think only to you, silly mr. david… rain wet… :P
    but i guess you could have some fun… with words… :P

  • David Roman

    David Roman

    Only you my sweet butterfly inspires me to look deeper for words to describe what your words do to me! Like your art your words offer me the freedom to dream and explore new meaning and to scramble them as I do your art in search of a deeper fuller meaning for me.And then dream a fuller dream that only you can help me obtain. Silly me dare have a dream !;))) Hummm

    Nina Rycroft

    It’s so much more than a blackbird. The darkness and fury of the brush. It captures the imagination.

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you nina… love your words… the darkness and fury of the brush… indeed…
    i love your illustrations.. you certainly know how to capture the imagination…

  • Holly Ringland

    Holly Ringland

    mmm, this is gorgeous and dark and frantic and i love it mimi. the streaks, the drips… but the peacefulness of the blackbird… and the one splash of red, the one red feather… makes my heart skip a beat. it’s something that’s been in my notebook of ideas for a while :) beautiful beautiful work and yay you for turning anxiety into this.

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks holly… i don’t know if that idea of yours was for a photo image or a writing, but may be we could turn this into a collab work… btw i love your words holly… your writing works are beautiful : )

  • Barco

    The work has power. Ravens and crows are messengers. They bring news, usually of ill events happened or future. I like the way the bird directs our view away to the right where we find what is deeper still than the bird alone depicts. Thanks for sharing.

  • mimi yoon replied

    belated thank you barco… appreciate your very thoughtful words… : )

  • fullcirclemandalas

    fullcirclemand...

    I can so relate Mimi – some days I just paint, paint, paint – its amazing what comes out !

  • mimi yoon replied

    haha… my anxiety attack is nothing of that degree… often at work (i teach art ) i want to create but if a parent walks in or if i have to do a consultation or just don’t find an inspiration, i become a bit edgy or anxious… it’s the urge to create that causes it… : ) thank you johnny… with the anxiousness (felt like i had one cup of coffee too many) i painted this piece like a lightening has struck…. : )
