Artist's Comments

And that wasn't even intended! O.O The snare drum was beginning to be tainted with red and dark blue due to my drumsticks being tainted themselves with the finger-paint I used on my drum, and it was only a big mess, until....

I played drums today, and I swear, I don't know exactly why (but I have a big idea), I began to play the same rhythm over and over again on my snare, closing my eyes, letting more than my mind go, letting my whole soul go! During half an hour, I slipped from reality, the only thing still connecting me being the repetitive sound of "A rush of blood to the head" from Coldplay into my ears. I wasn't feeling anything anymore, not my feet, not my head, not my hands; I only felt my heart, and I felt.......at peace. On a cloud. On another plane. When I opened my eyes, I just.....cried.

Did you ever feel as if you'd just waken up from a deep dark, without remembering what happened, as if your soul was somewhere else for a while? I now know where mine was.

Et ce n'était même pas voulu! O.O La caisse claire commençait à être tachée de rouge et de bleu foncé dû à mes baguettes étant elles aussi tachées de la peinture à doigts que j'ai utilisée sur ma batterie, et c'était juste une grosse tache, jusqu'à ce que......

J'ai joué de la batterie aujourd'hui, et je le jure, je ne sais pas exactement pourquoi (mais j'ai quand même une grande idée), j'ai commencé à jouer le même rythme encore et encore sur ma caisse claire, fermant les yeux, laissant plus que mon esprit s'en aller, laissant mon entière âme s'en aller! Pendant une demi-heure, je me suis évadé de la réalité, la seule chose me gardant connecté à celle-ci étant le son repétitif de «A rush of blood to the head» de Coldplay dans mes oreilles. Je ne sentais plus rien à présent, pas mes pieds, pas ma tête, pas mes mains; je ne sentais que mon coeur, et je me sentais......en paix. Sur un nuage. Dans un plan parallèle. Quand j'ai ouvert mes yeux, j'ai juste......pleuré.

Vous êtes-vous déjà senti comme si vous veniez de vous réveiller d'un profond noir, sans vous souvenir de ce qui s'était passé, comme si votre âme était ailleurs pendant un lapse de temps? Je sais maintenant où la mienne était.

Wow Thony! I thought the heart shape on the drum was intentional. I don't play music but there is a "zone" that I go into whenever I'm painting for long stints. It hasn't happened in a while because I haven't gone through the right rituals and given myself space to get there... but your artist's comment reminded me of it. Thanks!

No problem! Yeah, it was not intentional! Now today it ain't that clear due to the times I played on it, but it's still clearly visible. It's a sign of life, or at least, I thought at the time. Follow your heart, that's what I kept from that and from my trip.

As for the "zone", this kind of thing must not be rushed or forced, and by your comment I think you truly understand that. Something just popped in my mind: getting in that "zone" is like doing yoga. You must do it when you feel like it, when you're not rushed or stressed and enjoy it for every seconds it gives you. Let your passions and love lead you. ;)
