Muto's Minis #12




I had some left over matt board, so I decided to cut it into drippy shapes with a slight sense of gravity. I really focused on the negative space carving into the body of the smaller one. My texture experiments are continued on top of each shape. Next, I want to try one with more relaxing colors. Which one do you like better?

Muto's Moment #13



Girl of My Dreams


I can’t remember how I got here

I only know the future

I can’t remember who she is

But I’m sure I love her


There is no time

There’s no today


Floating we lie

Side by side

Hold me and I’m sure we’ll fly away


Soaring through the flowers

Till we fall into the clouds

I whisper sweet words in your ear

But you don’t need the sounds

Something strong and crystal clear

Lifts us from the ground

You and I were meant to fly

Love is what we’ve found

Muto's Moment # 12



Nonchalant

Come with me
We'll fly away
And wander as the sun is dying

Don't look down
There's nothing wrong
Just stay asleep
And keep on flying

In your dreams
Time moves so slow
It's such a waste
Unless you know

That time is just
A silly thing
To tell you when
To watch TV

Dream away
And keep on flying
Sleep all day
The sun is dying

Pedagogic Portrait #2



This is another portrait I made in my first drawing class at UNC. It is a profile of my friend and classmate, Laura. We didn't have much time, so I used minimal shading on the face and played with the texture of the hair. I also goofed around with the cord from her headphones.

Muto's Moment #11



Two of a Kind


We talk

We sing

We dance

We play


My friend and I, together all day.


We win

We lose

We laugh

We smile


Can you stay another little while?


We climb

We roam

We find

We see


I can go anywhere if my friend's with me.


We tell

We share

We solve

We dream


My friend and I: the perfect team.

Muto's Moment #10

Rush

I like to sit by the side of a creek
A tender spot surrounded by trees
The small amount of water creates an entrancing sound
All I have to do is listen

I cannot hear where the water has been
I cannot hear where it will go
I know the grandest waterfalls are on its path
This is the spot I choose

Aqua serenity
The small stones form a symphony
Playing the music of matter in motion
Liquid peace

The force of the stream drives on
The nature of water is the same as man's
Forever following the path of least resistance
Wearing itself thin in hopes of reaching the great sea

I feel as if resting here
Can unbind me from the slavery of my will
I can simply listen to the rushing water
And forget the rush of man
