sketches in uk

I am making website recently. found out lots of pics. put to here.

Painting is my hobby. It's a way to discribe myself. in line, in power, in speed, in colour... I stopped painting for a while. Time is always limite. But I know painting would company me in my whole life. Mikey had told me Joanna Quinn always brings a sketch book with her. Im trying to get this habit back. After come to this side of the earth, 'be myself' is a fact I have to accept. Painting is a way to release me. I don't know why and how, but it does. Sometimes I can understand why Van Gogh cut his ear. I went to National gallery several times. When I stair at his painting, I can feel the insistence and lonely. He has a WHOLE WORLD, but nobody can understand, or want to understand. In front of his painting people ask 'why'. I say 'why not'. He is not painting the flower, the house, the people, he is painting his opinionn towards life. That's why he can be an artist. He doesn't want to show how good skill he can be, how much he can be better than others. In the race, he was only with himself. But the tragedy is he wants to be understand like anybody elses. He wants others come to his world. enjoy his world. In the gallery, Impressionist's works are in the same room. My bf asked me:'if u r able to make a friend with Van Gogh or Cezanne(my best favouite artist), which one would u choose?'. I thought a while, 'Van Gogh' I thought. He need a friend.
