Yesterday, I dipped my finger in the moonlight and painted my name on the sky of your soul.Your trees sprang to life under its glow and I could feel you smiling quietly behind the closed curtains of your eyes. My name bears the history of my disappointments and joys, the seemingly endless roads toward myself … Continue reading Moonlight
Affair with Life
Evening thoughts
Just like most of my drawings, some things are never finished and they will never be. They started as blurred lines, thrown here and there, with wrong proportions, questionable color blends, and no direction. But the strokes are bold, unapologetic and they come out naturally as if they have a life of their own or … Continue reading Evening thoughts
The Right Question
The other day, I came across a very old interview with Michael Jackson hosted by Oprah. It's not the first time I watch it but it does not cease to surprise me.While I can't say that I would EVER choose MJ over my most beloved and ardently followed Freddie Mercury, he remains the favorite of … Continue reading The Right Question

The most challenging and demanding energetically, emotionally, … Continue reading Purging

A thousand years
I feel this feeling I have felt before. I feel it and it's as alive in me as it was 10 years ago. Or 15. Or 1000. There is no way for me to describe it. There are no words. But it's there and I have never felt more at home. I remember myself looking … Continue reading A thousand years
