He wants me to open him... Should I open him? I will
Paint your soul *laughs* okay!
I can be a fictional animal
I can be like a chimera right? *laughs*
That's what I am. Yeah.
*howling* *bird sounds*
Hello. I'm Ceciley. I have a YouTube channel called Ceciley where I make
very awkward comedy videos
I guess being creative is important to me because
I noticed that
if I go a few days without being creative that I feel like
a can on a shelf that has an expiration date on it
and that I should be thrown away
and there should probably be grey sludge inside *laughs* that's how I feel
I don't feel alive unless I'm creating. And it seems like there's no
point too
like why be here if you're not going to create something
to connect with other people the only way to create anything dramatic
is through conflict and any kinda
art that's good is probably a little bit dramatic.
I think that a strong expression of
any kind comes through conflict and
whether you're addressing the conflict with the art
or you're having conflict with yourself. I think anytime I make any art
I'm in conflict with myself and a little bit in conflict
with other people because they have ideas of what they want to do too and it's
never exactly the same
but if you have that feeling of openness with your wings wide
then we should all be able to express something
I think what makes you a real artists is
deciding that you want to
connect to people through creation and then
the finishing touch would be someone actually being
touched. You can't quantify like a hero
being an artist. If I think you're good that would be
then I would be the boss of the world which would probably be
great for the world but that's not how it works *laughs*
For most of my life I've done drawings and
I didn't feel like I was a real artist because I didn't paint
and after I guess 10 years a painting now
I realized that I should just be drawing because I'm better at it
and it's a more true expression of who I am and I'm
still real artist even if it's not paints
even if it doesn't look like a mango.
Having to make do with what you have is great
having to MacGyver your way through something can show you more about what
you're trying to make
then if you had everything perfect but the challenge to what you up
is still like *growling* but
yeah you have to work work with what you got. Don't start a creative project
unless
you want to put your whole self and life into it. It won't be a reflection of you
if you don't care about it
I think that art is the soul's
expression of how its processing
reality I guess or the earth. Trying to define the bigger picture and connect to the
bigger, deeper aspects of humanity
I was requested to paint my soul so I did
a finger painting on glass of my soul
which is apparently is a wolf, dolphin,
bird with jazz hands *laughs*
with lots of like Celtic knots signifying
connectedness and infinity.
