Witticisms. by =Miss-Deathwish


the best time to correct mistakes
is right after you make them.
in that case, we would have lasted for

about a minute.


you break it, you buy it -
well if you had bought all the things you broke
about me, i would be

filthy rich.


if you pin your hopes on someone,
you're likely to end up with a lot of pinpricks.
i ended up

pretty fucking shredded.


we are god's sheep, and we follow
the same shepherd. we reach greatness
that way. well, i strayed to find you-

what a stupid sheep.


is there a difference between 'treat you well'
and 'give you hell'? because
you taught me that

they're the same.


real love isn't hard to find-
it's just hard to keep.
this is a lie. it is hard to find,

and impossible to keep.






Ladyrapid


Our featured artist for this volume is =ladyrapid. His art is unique, vivid, and colorful. Ladyrapid mainly focuses on digital space art and photography and uses softness and glows to create dynamic artwork. He gladly answered a few questions about himself and his art; let's check it out.

Tell us a bit about yourself.
Well, this is often something hard I think, always hard to point out good features of yourself randomly like this so I'm going with - Robin, 24 years of age, swedish, photography, digital art, life, exploration, elbow grease and food! Oh yea, one more thing: I'm a MALE which over the years have been quite the question. Mostly due to my "ladyrapid" username and "Robin" as a name. Social, happy and outgoing person with 2 steady feet on the ground and a big heart. Trying to make the best of my days, only have them one time in your life so I see no point of wasting it. I started doing "art" when I was able to hold a crayon, and even better, when I could aim it towards the wall. Drew alot as a child and growing up it was a part of me. In my teenage years around 15-16 I found out about digital art and took that up instantly; I was hooked. It was also here I discovered about analog photography, which today means a big deal to me. So far art is a big part of my life, we'll see where it will take me in the future.

How has art influenced your daily life?
Hmm...it's made a HUGE difference I think. Everything I do on a daily basis is almost all for the love of art and my view upon it. What is art really anyways? Is it something being created or is it around and different ways to look upon the outside world we live in? I do that, only through my camera and through my computer. Yes, my life is highly influenced by art in every positive way possible. Without it I woulden't ever have met all the amazing people I've got to know last couple of years. Priceless.

Which artists have influenced your artwork and style?
Let the namedropping begin shall we hehe. From the start I was all about abstract 3D and the one who got my attention in this area is Justin Maller, a.k.a +ekud. His style and everything got me hooked, badly. His style at the time was new and fresh, very stylish and original. Just couldn't stay away from it. He was great for my early ages, art wise. After a while I turned in on the path of Sci-fi where the amazing `alyn roamed the pages. He truly was a big inspiration as well as `hameed with everything about sci-fi, more or less. I could throw down 200 names here but these 3 are the more major ones that truly affected me BIG in my development and growth. From working for a few years on and off with sci-fi I've managed to create a style of my own which I find something very sweet in this big and wide genre of extremley talented people. I often go very rich in color and with a vivid twist of light and softness.

Which work(s) of art do you consider your biggest achievement?
Wow, this was a hard one. I have to think. I'd say that Ethereal Oscillate is one of my best works to this day. It's not perfect, not even near and even if I could go back and update it now, I wouldn't. It has personality and history as it is now.
It's simple, strong, ambient and abstract. Exactly the ways/style I first fell in love with sci-fi. This was one of those spontaneous brushings just smacked together to later on realize that what I did actually turned out damn good. With that said, much more often than we can think, projects/scraps/sketches and just scribblings actually IS beautiful works, only that we for the moment just hasn't seen it yet. Never draw/create things and delete it. Save it and delete it another time when you've seen it with a new pair of eyes.

What do you hope to show or demonstrate to your viewers with your art?
I hope by watching my art and my progress people will hopefully see something of interest, something to make them think, good OR bad things and find artistic value in what I do. When people give me credit and appreciate work that I've created, that I've put my style into and that I've developed and brought from my imagination, that brings me the best feeling in the world. As cliché as it is, it's basically what it's all about. Me doing what I love doing and people love the outcome of that, nothing beats it, nothing in the world.

Thank you for your time, Ladyrapid.
Thank you for the interview, was much harder than I thought to give back good answers hehe. Now I'm gettin some more coffee and work some magic in photoshop, take care, bye.

It seems =ladyrapid's story of artistic journey is much like mine. It seems many great artists I meet here started later on in life, often only developing an interets in art in their early teens or something (they just got lucky in that they got really good really fast :shakefist:) But like Him - I too started drawing as soon as I held my first chunky non-toxic crayon in my hand :lol: so uhhh...don't interveiw me anytime too soon, since it will essentially be the same story again =p

I thought he was female for along time too, oh well - one in row :giggle: nice features too, a good mix of all the major art forms, but not too much since nobody could possibly check them all if it was like other news articles that have hundreds of thumbnails :gallery:
