Hey,your drawing is so good.Love it!
When you give the drawing to Teng and Alexm,what did they say??I am wonder~ :lol: :lol:


Thanks, Breadsea, and welcome! I actually did not give the drawings to Vienna and Alex. I hope to frame them because they're in pastel and are very fragile. I think Vienna said "wow, that's a good drawing" (very subdued reaction. :) ) and Alex said "WHOA!!!!" turned to the crowd, and said "SHE DREW THIS!!!" He was very excited :lol:

Enjoy the forum!

Yes, beautiful work! The picture of Vienna singing really captures her, I think. Thank you for posting this!

Merci beaucoup, Walking Stranger! Mais la seule emotion que je vous montre, c'est la passion pour la musique! I don't think the pictures reveal much else about me :wink:

Please excuse my schoolgirl French...

Not a single mistake in the writing !
When reading this sentence you've just written, I remember Michael Jonathan and his quotations of Einstein, Mark Twain and so on during the live shows in the Woodsongs' Old Time Radio Hour about potentials to be developped through passion... ;)

And to come back to what you wrote, as a simple reader of this thread and looking at your drawings too, there is more than music, there is also another expression of your 'self', through the drawing and I could guess through so much things you could experiment or are experimenting ...

I mentionned somewhere in this VT forum that some ex-colleague told me this : everyone has at least one or more talents, you just need to explore them !
She's a fan of David Lynch talking in Le Divan du Monde about the power of creation...

And to quote a late website :

"Réalités (26/04/2006)" - Réflexions (http://groupe.iconoclaste.free.fr - site disparu)

" [...] « Mais enfin, me dira-t-on, si nous interprétons tous de nombreux personnages, il sera impossible de connaître vraiment quelqu'un! » A cela je répondrai que l'on ne connait jamais vraiment quelqu'un mais que l'on ne connaît que le personnage qu'il interprète en notre présence. Même pas d'ailleurs, on ne connaît que l'image que l'on a de ce personnage. Connaître bien quelqu'un c'est le connaître dans les différents univers au sein desquels il évolue, c'est connaître les différents personnages qu'il interprète et les mêler pour en sortir une personnalité complexe et floue. Mais il est un personnage que l'on ne pourra jamais connaître, celui qui est interprété dans les instants de solitude. Pour cela nous ne pouvons connaître ce que sont les individus, nous pouvons simplement essayer de nous représenter leur style de jeu en fonction des pièces dans lesquelles ils se trouvent et du public auquel ils font face. Mais qu'une nouvelle situation apparaisse et nous découvriront que ceux que l'on croyait connaître ne sont pas exactement tels que nous nous les imaginions. Et d'ailleurs nous même, nous ne nous connaissons que dans les cadres que nous avons déjà expérimenté. Et se connaître soi-même, ne serait-ce pas justement savoir comment l'on réagit dans le plus de situations possibles ? Pour cela encore, n'est-il pas souhaitable de multiplier les expériences de liberté que sont toutes ces existences, que sont toutes ces réalités ? [...] "


But then, I will be told, if we all play many characters, it will be impossible to really know someone! To that, I will answer that we never really know someone but that we only know the character that person plays in our presence. Not even that way, we only know the image that we have from that character. To know well someone is to know him/her in the different universes inside which he/she evolves, it's to know the different characters he/she plays and to mix them up so as to come out with a complex and blurred personality. But there is one character that we will never know, the one which is played in moments of solitude. For that reason, we can't know what the individuals are, we can simply try to imagine their style of play according to the rooms where they are in and to the audience they face. But when a new situation occurrs and we will discover that those we thought to know are not exactly like what we have imagined them. Furthermore, about ourselves, we know ourselves only in the environnments that we already have experimented. And to know oneself, isn't it just to know how we react in most of the possible situations ? For that too, will it be better to multiply experiences of freedom that are all these existences, that are all theses realities ?

Wow.

Glad to know that my rusty French still makes sense. You're too kind.

I love that passage. Thanks for sharing. Describes the relationship between idols (like Vienna) and fans pretty well. Also reminds me of my favorite actor Gary Oldman, and how people seem to assume that he becomes the characters he plays (mostly villains), which differs from his own explanation that he puts himself (whoever that might be) into each of his characters.
