“Someone loves it and someone hates it”

The lesson that I have taken away from them was that everyone has a different perspective on looking at things, understanding a message, and even delivering a message. To let others enjoy and love the creation first the creator has to love it.

Why hand and why is it going over the frame?

The hand is to represent creation. I personally like to create content to deliver what I hope people to see. Everyone has their own perspective, they might not like it but that’s what represents who I am. 

The reason for every asset that is being drawn out of the frame just to keep reminding myself not to stay in the comfort zone.

“The further you get away from yourself, the more challenging it is. Not to be in your comfort zone is great fun.”― Benedict Cumberbatch

Why wild grass or wildflowers as part of my branding? 

The concept inspired by the life of wild grass and wildflower- the idea of being determined in everything that is done. Wild grass is hard to defeat; they steadily recover, growing soon after facing every “difficulties”. This is a perfect metaphor as I never grow tired of trying new things, skills and art styles

“Each mistake teaches you something new about yourself. There is no failure, remember, except in no longer trying. It is the courage to continue that counts.” ― Chris Bradford, The Way of the Sword
