Epic fail, chapter three

Dear blog.

sorry, lets start again.

Hey blog.
Jest here.

Another request for a post on hobbies.

Some like to read, others like to fish. For me, I like to draw.

For the aliens from Mars. The technique drawing consist of the tool known to earthlings as a 'pencil', and a medium known as 'paper'. To draw, the earthling puts his hand around the 'pencil' put the 'pencil' over the 'paper', apply pressure and move the 'pencil'. This creates a trail of carbon on the 'paper' earthlings call as a 'line'. Earthlings then make more trails of carbon with the 'pencil' to create an a jumble of carbon earthlings call a 'picture.' An earthling might also use a 'pencil' with carbon dyed to a certain colour to "colour" the 'picture.'

For those who are earthlings, some might wonder ' whats the point of drawing when I can use a camera*? Well, if there was a camera in Leonardo Da Vinci's time and he was lazy, the snapshot of Mona Lisa might have been worth slightly more than 30 cents. "but there are some pictures that are worth almost a thousand dollars!" you might say.

The Mona Lisa is hand drawn , isn't it? And it cost more than a million dollars.
A good picture when left to age, would turn into a lot of money. Wheras a good snapshot when left to age would turn into dust.
Although I might not earn millions of dollars, I will still cherish all my time with my paper, and leave carbon paper on it.


Jest, signing out
