Obvious Online Withdrawal Syndromes & The Artist Ruben Ireland

I try to draw everyday, even if its a doodle. Even if it ends up in a bin, or as a tissue or something. I still try, even if it amounts to nothing but abstract lines on a page. I spend a lot of time on the internet, in fact, I came to realise that the internet is my friend, a good friend, actually, one of my best friends. I cant live without her. Well I have been for like a month now but god knows that it has been eating me up from the inside. I end up doing things I wouldnt usually do because without the internet at home I dont have a release. It sucks.

Soon that will change. I hope. Its all I can do for now. Found a new artist today. (See, this is why the internet is my friend) I get to find artists from all over the world and I get to share it with like minded people like yourselves. His name is Ruben Ireland and he is fucking awesome. His work is very minimal, and you can see that he puts a lot of effort into it. He uses traditional methods as well as digital, and it says on his website that 'he creates thoughtful and dreamlike images that carry emotional weight as well as a relevance to daily life.'
