memory
4 / 7
Do you remember the day you realized that you were reading?
we used to do summersaults at the corridors of the school with Cicek.
I had an idea that I really liked. but I cannot remember.
I dragged Shirley to show her the giant chair in front of a house in our neighborhood. "Honey. We have seen it before." "How do I forget seeing this? Remarkable..."
The food in Berkeley reminds me the food that we buy from the weekly food bazaars in Istanbul + Izmir (Turkey)
sometimes when I see a woman crossing her legs I remember the obligatory religion classes back in Turkey, in which they only teach about Islam. One of the religion teachers in my high school, used to preach about the dangers of crossing the legs for woman. Ismail Hakki, I hope one day you get trapped in a room full of women crossing their legs.
That's how I used to draw a man when I was 2 years old. Later, my father taught me how to draw a car that looks three-dimensional. I drew cars three-dimensional and every other thing flat for many years. That's how my 2 year old nephew draws a flag. He draws the movement.
"come to The Aegean Sea" I missed the sea. "We missed you too!"
The guy on the sidewalk was lost somewhere in his past. remember forget remember forget remember forget remember forget remember
Sometimes I think whether my first grade teacher with huge shoulder paddings is still alive or not. I wish I could see her again.
Suggestion #2 For developing drawing skills you don't need to be talented but it is helpful to be determined and persistent. Draw objects by looking at them. We tend to draw from memory. when we draw from memory we lose details and we remember some of the shapes in a distorted way. After practicing for a long while we develop a library of well remembered objects in our minds. Also drawing by really looking at things develops our way of seeing the world. "are you looking at me?"
what did you miss today? I missed diving into cold sea...
