The Scarlet Path.

Aesthetic. It's no longer a word but a creature. Amazingly simple but at the same time, something so complex that one an never truely understand it. To one it is glorious to another it is not. Not a soul may own this thing. This diety from which many draw strength. It is holiness within itself. A treasure, a pawn. I use this word to describe art. It instills itself deep in my heart, feeding off my thoughts and I hope to never let it go. I know my definition may seem cliche but I do as I wish and explain it one way. The human body is a machine, a thriving, lusting, powerful machine that is unlike any other invention in the world. Humans are also just simply stunning. Complex beings that fear what the understand and care not to tangle with the unknown. This is why I choose to draw them in different circumstances with different emotions. I can play a mirror that will show you terrifying monsters, beautiful women and things that only dreams are made of. Butterflies that reside in the bellies of beasts that await a chance to be undevoured. Who knows what I'll bring you next. Romance deeps with mystery. Or horror stuns the sight. What I bring to you is a chance for me to express myself on how I view the world. Let you peer into my mind so that you may understand me a little more. Sadly though, my subconcious scares even me. I must tell you this, I am unlike anything you have ever studied. I do not create my own worlds with selfish conviction I only draw from others their ideas of me. I leave you to make your nest with a tiny prayer that you grow a little more.

Romance steeped with mystery. Horrors that stun one sightless.

Oh I'm not here to critique and grade am I. I'm not sure exactly why you invited me here. I am however glad you did. I will have to share with you some of my ideas. Scary huh?

The thing about the subconscious mind is that it holds both our deepest and darkest fears but can reveal our fiercest strengths. I drove myself mad to see what was there. When I came back the boy was dead and I'm not yet that man. I do however hope one day to be that person someone seeks. And in the seeker be found.

I will make my nest but it isn't a chore I appreciate, for it is a nest for one. A lonely bird is he that cannot find a mate. For then is it that no one hears his call, or is it that they just don't care. The lonely man cries for love and has none.

If you think my words ill chosen please inform me.
