The Brown Owl and The Dragons

 I was surprised when my daughter arrived home from school with this drawing above of a great brown owl. Cute isn't it? My daughter is really good at drawing, one of her skills. She is a moody creative artist. Moody! She likes to draw when she feels like it not that she does it all the time. She's enrolled in computer animation and I want her to expand her creativity with computer skills if need be. I hope the computer art teacher knew the many skills and techniques applied in such art so that my daughter can benefit from it. A good teacher always teach the students the required skills and not hide the importance of the knowledge and skills required to maintain perfection in every result of that artwork. You have to pass your talent to the ones whom you think will follow your footsteps in creating an obra - maestra or masterpiece.

You may notice that there are too many video games and movies based on animated cartoon characters then also the discovery of Avatar the new generation of digitally skilled and altered human beings used for  "Avatar film - making." Not that I want to change human beings being used to work in the movies to act and talk but animation is such a world wide hit in this generation in this time and you and I have to go with the flow or sink swim against the current? If you're a great swimmer, yes.

 Year 2012 is the Year of the Dragons. Chinese love their dragons. Do the other population love dragons? Not so many like dragons. For them it's evil. It's the dancing dragon > the Aurora! The Northern lights and it's amazing and at the same time it is scary. Frightening to the bones.

 Well folks you have to realize it's only drawing. You have to tame the inner dragon in yourself. Reality, fantasy! Can you make a difference and comparison? Our mind can do such thing of figuring it out.

Oh dragons! Aren't they colorful? Vibrant so tantalizing? China the origin of dragon and then Bruce Lee provided us with "Enter The Dragon" movie until a strange dream mystified his very own existence and next thing we know he died. Then his son followed in such a very mystifying death only dragons knew that Empire always strike back.

The SUN is like a fiery fierce dragon it can send fire and solar flares. It can be so madly deeply hot and cooler at night. Could it be that the sun is also the moon? No one can tell...only if you have the strength of the dragon within your blood.
