Beautiful Poem by Rumi: Pink Ink , Blue Ink+White Gouache on paper
“What you see lies in the mirror,
though it’s your own, and not the mirror’s,
The breath that’s blown within the flute,
Who owns it, the flute or you?”
Translation taken from:
The Illustrated Rumi: A Treasury of Wisdom from the Poet of the Soul
Philip Dunn (Author), Manuela M. Dunn (Author), R.A.Nicholson (Author)
”..philosophy is a world-exposition and not a world - explanation..” Adapted from F. Nietsche’s ‘Beyond good and evil.’

Excerpt from
The Prisoner of Heaven
Read this in a book by Terry Pratchett, one of my favourite authors - how can you not like an author who makes death seem cute and adorable.
Started on the sketchbook gifted by a dear friend…see her work on her blog:
Tried to create another one with ‘Order in the Chaos’. Spelling mistakes :/, but happy with the font.
Here’s to the bygone fall …. Ink, Oil Paints(straight from the tube) on Paper

One of my favourite couplets from a famous poem by Dushyant Kumar - Ink on Paper
Translation:
“…The intent is not to create a ruckus/chaos,
All this trying is to change the state of things,
If not in my heart, then, in your heart,
Wherever the fire (passion) may be,
but the fire must burn on…”

Inspired by Piet Mondrian’s style. Wanted to see how geometrical shapes and text would go together, as usual rough edges but am happy with the final result.
