"TOO MUCH FOR ONE HEART"

Ooooohhhh my gosshhhh.... I am sooooooo in love with this song... I don't get fed up of hearing and hearing this song all over again...

This song was sung by Lea Salonga in one of her concerts....She is the original "KIM"  

in Miss Saigon...According to her, this song was not included in the play because 

it didn' t move the story.... This was also sung by Frances Ruffelle, the original "EPONINE" in Les Miserables..., for a demo...But  I still prefer Lea's voice...., and how she sang this from a sweet angelic  voice to  such powerful vocal rendition in the end.... , leaving an indescribable impression of bliss, love and amazement...

I do thank God for creating you....
your voice , your great performance, this play..., and the story of the song....
they all touched my soul... 

TOO MUCH FOR ONE HEART

***MISS SAIGON***  

Outside there is a war,
in here the night is still.
the jasmine buds have bloomed,
the way the jasmine will.
And i have given birth to a speckle of dust,
to a sparkle of light
to a small hint of life...

Frail as a flower in the morning
is this tiny work of art
when i see his face before me
this is too much for one heart....

Here like a seedling in the garden
is a world about to start
how i need you here to share it
this is too much for one heart.....

  
yours, half of all of this is yours
and i swear it on the moon...

Soon you will see, the best of you and me
in the smile that is shining
on the face of your son...

all alone in my arms i hold such beauty
I want time to stop right here
make perfection last forever
in which i could disappear, disappear....


Yours, half of all of this is yours
and now i feel you coming near
here, you will see the best of you and me
for life stories combining
in this life we’ve begun...

I have been living with such wonder
that my soul could burst apart,
knowing soon we’ll be together
and it’s too much for one heart...

2010 MOTHER AND CHILD TIMELESS SKETCHES

YEAR OF THE TIGER

2010

I  decided to make another page for my MOTHER AND CHILD sketches.... , as I am really determined

to make a nice collection of this...

So I grabbed my favorite 045 REYNOLDS black ballpen and started scribbling..... 

YES !!! I am using an ordinary writing pen for my artworks.....

So for a start..., I posted my very first opus here.., done on the 1st day of January, Year of the Tiger, 2010....

ENJOY !!!

  I am beginning to see the core of my individuality as an artist...

I have browsed at several pictures and paintings from the net..., comparing my work to theirs....

I see some similarities when it comes to expressing love and passion in this kind of art....some i find impressive..., but some i find plain....  just "pictures" of the mother and child.., nothing special....

I am not saying that my work is the best, or even greater ...It's not even perfect..., but I love what I do...

In this work,  I see some imperfections regarding the anatomy...

haha.., I did this with my tummy lying flat on the bed...so at a short distance, I thought it was ok..... but when I finished this, I stood up and saw this from a distance, I noticed that the right  arm of the mother was short....

Anyways, despite of this,  I am happy about it because I discovered my  sense of style and originality...

I always want to express love and care 

in all of my works....,which is also present in other artists' works......

But after doing this.... I realized that it is not enough....

Gazing at this picture..., I noticed  that I have exaggerated the folds of the cloth...

But I have loved the effect..., it adds softness to the picture.., 

most of all, it brought  the essence of  COMFORT inside the mother's arms....

Thus by adding this "flavor"...., it gave my work a COMPLETE LOOK....., 

such renditions with the essence of love, passion, all wrapped  up with comfort....

THIS IS MY STYLE....MY ORIGINALITY as a "MOTHER and CHILD" artist....

I would definitely want to be known for it....
