Subsistence is the fragile hindrance to our waking tangency from the ephemeral yonder. Where will you be when the line ruptures?

For my girl, no amount of words can begin to profess how much you mean to me, my inspiration, my joy, my benevolence...

So... where do I actually begin, I've always tried to portray something mystique and awe, but couldn't pinpoint my ideas exactly. I remembered how I had a fear of anonymous cloud-like entities when I was very young. Ever since I saw photographs of nebulae and super novas, my mind instantly drew my interest towards these ideas. There's just something to behold about these phenomenons of the universe, and I just couldn't resist trying my hands on improving how to paint space.

But then I tried to convey a message within this piece, but there can be many meanings to everyone I'm sure. To me, everything happens upon a set pattern, when an occurrence changes path, the patterns receding it will branch out entirely different systems, while crossing the paths of other occurrences therefore changing them, sounds familiar? But what does this have to do with anything? Well, to simply put it, the world has gone so downhill, that things are in fact changing at a great deal, as we can all witness it on a planetary level. However, would we change anything on a galactic, universal, or multi-universal level if we are to prolong our actions? Hm... some food for thought?

Ok I think I'll stop talking for now... rantttttt
