Mate, nice art.. Keep up the good work .

Awww dash that is very kind of you to say could I ask you whats your interpretation ?

Its difficult as a human to find a logical meaning to life . Rather to find a meaning its better to enjoy the variety that life offers us.

That's so interesting do you think life is suffering ? Dash ?

Life is both rewarding and painful i feel . To keep going is the mantra . what say ? @harj

Yes thats how one must see it to survive or needs to find some reward!

Correct ..

sehr schön

Danke..

Danke!! thank you ! glad you liked it! Val

@harj your photography is amazing
and also painting is fabulous.
I love your art.

Indifference by harj. nice post amazing photography blog

aww thank you bro !

Im glad you like it : ) would be lovely to know what you think about it ?

Awww thank you Zain what is your interpretaion of the art piece can you see yourself in it ?

>each individual not a society or a religion is solely responsible for adding meaning to life and living it. The absurdity that life has a meaning to you but the universe has no meaning or significance. In essence is meaningless and indifferent to our short existence.

I agree with the first part for the most part! Though sometimes I wonder if there even really is an individual of if the ego is just an illusion. I do think we should try to find our own purpose that's super important, though I'm not convinced the universe is indifferent, there might be some kind of sort of symbiotic relationship going on there.

Interesting thoughts and artwork!

thanks Apol I like your idea of a symbiotic relationship love to know abit more. Iv added abit more too! thank you apol : ) very interesting

Hello @harj, when I first loo at your painting I see myself in it. It feels like the my happiness, the warmth I've been longing is colliding with the personality I wanted everyone to see. This painting shows how a man can be the only way to regain himself. Everything begins in ones self. Keep painting sir, I'm looking forward to see more. I'm actually into sketching. I'm not that good though.

wow thats amazing quiin! I like your view please build on it please let there be a conclusion!!!. love to know the ending ...: )

Brilliant. Love the painting a lot

aww jolt how do you see the painting bro ?

This is what I like about steemit, it brings out the inner artist in us and creates an audience for our artistic products.
Your paintings can tell a lot of different stories depending on the person who is viewing it.
As a fan of an art, for me your painting expresses something like in this world we currently live in where there are lots of terrorisms happening, descriminations and other evil things, we should unite as people of the world whatever your color is, wherever you came from and whoever you are we should have the spirit of being one to have a world peace. The dot on the painting symbolizes us people to unite and the big canvass symbolizes the world.
Great work of art though! Keep it up. Cheers!:)

Beach I love your viewpoint!!! " expresses something like in this world we currently live in where there are lots of terrorisms happening, descriminations and other evil things, we should unite as people of the world whatever your color is, wherever you came from and whoever you are we should have the spirit of being one to have a world peace.

thanks for acknowledging my feelings of interpretation towards your great work of art! cheers! :)

a simple painting has great meaning

Thank you trexy what did you like about it ? your personal understanding ?

You look lovely as always in your pictures. Nice to see you so happy. Lovely post.

Awww thanks dilsa what did you think about my paining ? love to know : )

I see isolation, I see bright beautiful colours wanting to break free.

Awwww thank you . Bright talents wanting to break free! I truly feel Steemit like this painting maybe bridge that void : )

Thats good, Im glad steemit is bringing light into your life.

Hey man, I really enjoyed it! I think the concept is quite interesting actually. I believe I've had this debate with my friends many times, whether this universe has intrinsic meaning to it or not. I always come back to the conclusion that life has meaning where you give meaning, and I think thats one of the beautiful things of being human. We get to string strange symbols and hieroglyphs together and call it a language, we get to communicate in strange sounds made by our body and know what the other is thinks about this or that. But at the same time language isn't solely inherent in human beings, all types of animals have ways of communication, and how did they come up with those forms of communication, yet we consider them to be much less intelligent then humans.

This leads me to thinking that everything is connected in some way, and that we're not much different from anything else here in the universe.

Your piece has quite honestly led me to rethink some things regarding that. hahaha thank you for that!

Jameel I really love your interpretation of the painting and yes its seem so absurd! when you think about it, make one emotinal if this is it why should one continue.

focus on the pretty girls...xp

Great answer for life Kona! : P and food!!!!! Plus $$$$$

To me it's about the simplycity that is our life, isn't order, the life is short, you give the meaning, the reason to live... all depend of you, you decide, you can go or leave... I like your workart! thanks!

Wow that was well said !!!!!! Such a serious assessment!

i see a volcano shortly before the eruption. there is so much hidden under the dark surface, but now it´s time to let it out.
it´s not possible to hold back our diverse colours, minds, stories or feelings.
we can take the chance if we get the tools. thanks steemit ;)
maybe you will paint one that shows the incredible power breaking out?

I love your post! Gulusch it's so refreshing and different! Thank you for the contribution : ) really appreciate it

thanks for your kind words!!

Wow that’s a very deep post you shared there. To me it represents the infinite beginning and the infinite end to our existence. We are everything and yet nothing- might as well have fun and enjoy the ride :) humanity is waking up and amongst all the fear mongering and hate propaganda, we are connected. We use our wisdom to create cool shit every day- think Elon Musk.

If you aren’t scared of “dying” than life becomes fun and is seen from a space of love rather than seperation. Thank you brother x

@thecreativerebel I think you will appreciate this post and the comments- got a good tribe here

This post has received gratitude of 2.73 % from @appreciator thanks to: @harj.

Great painting! Quite intriguing. I don't have a lot of experience with interpreting art but my first impression when I seen it was lonelineness. A single entity being swallowed by a vast emptiness. Beautiful! The struggle of life.

wow just I feel that too!!!! its despairing! and shocking to know this is it! thank you!

I think it represents for me, an energetic beginning, ready to burst into life. very pleasing to look at.

Awww Naive yes! thats you and me on Steemit! making your way through all your hardwork! : )

What a beautiful work. I'm just fascinated. I like how everything seems ti combine, the contrast in the colors and the simplicity of the piece in general. Truly beautiful.

Awww daniel thats really sweet of you to say, I have heard a few say that thank you where you from ? do you feel like you are in the painting ?

You're welcome! I am from Venezuela. Yes. In some way, yes. At the same time I feel that the fully piece represents transformation. Like a collision sunset. Magical.

It seems to me a beautiful work of art that represents how small we are before the universe

wow yes I see that but what you think about that smallness ? thats us happy ?

Nice art. I would love to see more in future.

AWww thank you! love to know what you see in it ?

wow that was a nice paintings!

AWww what you think of my art Viuzz your own feelings ? where you from ?

Hi. I felt it's like the ocean of emotions. The brushstrokes look like waves, and beneath them, so many feelings and thoughs are hidden. Though, you only can see or express tiny bits of those feelings. I wonder how big this painting is.

Awww its not that big but large enough, Rinbird thank you for your share! I really like your idea of an ocean of emotions!! with hidden untapped feelings and thoughts. :)

I love art and this beautiful work of art represents it! I have also painted pictures and for me art represents love, life, feelings! Congratulations for that picture!

Thank you for your kind words Elien yes art can mean so much so many hope you we ejoying your time on Steemit! x

Amazing, @harj. At the first seeing, I feel it is a dragon flying up from the center of ocean. That dragon symbols for new brightest things coming up to you. It is also the way of telling that the strength is growing up despite of any trouble.
Nice art! Keep it up, @harj!

wow!!! i never seen it that way before! thats very insightful a dragon! YES just had a look and yes! I see it!!

Because I am just an ordinary people! So I just keep seeing it :P

Awww : ))))

Awww thank you soo much Ricmark

Great art science mr @harj

Hey danyachman that really nice to your to say agian conrgats on your wedding!!!! :)

Thank you mr @harj.
Hehehe .. but that is not my marriage, but the moment I take at marriage person.

ahhh thanks for clarifying dany : )

Haha, ok brother, no problem

@harj I really like your art style! At first glance I thought it was a bird submerged in water. The way I saw it was although it was fighting against so many odds it was still managing to radiate. Just like I believe our struggles in life create polarity in the positive. You can't really experience one without the other. But sometimes you need to persevere through the struggles to be able to appreciate the rewards. I reminder to never give up. I look forward to seeing more of your art!

Hey Neeqi I miss that one! but yes I think thats so amazing a bird submerged in water! and still managing to radiate! Awww thank you for your kind words! I really enjoyed your post My Body Suspension Experience xxx

Yes this painting is like a fish struggling to fight to the top of black murky water. Like an orange black and white goldfish but the water is like mud, thick and full of heaviness like life. Great art @harj. Upvoted

wow thats impressive interpretation Neeqi said somthing simular (a bird) I can see it!!! wow its soo cool to get your view! thank you Happy! : ) giving us insight : ) yes life is like that.

You're welcome keep up the great art. It inspires interpretations like Neeqi and mine

Awww happy yeah my son who is 7 Jensen won a award for his art! I bet your children must love art! : ) you from USA ? Im from the UK.

Very nice congrats to your son. That's great to learn. My children love music and art :) I'm from UK & Germany, my husband @verbal-d is from USA

ahhh Happyharm I love Germany I have many German freinds and I just checked out your husband he is doing very well!!! thank you Happy! aww I will tell Jensen! say my regards to your family xxx with love Harj x

Thank you! @harj I'm honestly filled with such gratitude to be apart of such a supporting and loving community. 💚

AWww yes its nice when you share similar views like happy! i have so much feedback for all of us and so much insight and variation into a art piece : ) this will be documented forever!!! thank you !!! on Steemit for the future!

I also am intrigued by your artwork and you are a wordsmith in to my ears @harj . It's so hard to imagine life without all of you guiding the way for other users any myself. Thank you~

~ If love is all we need then the value of interaction is not a coincidence here but rather the divinity of one another.

Love coins what wonderful words" the divinity of one another" I truly appreciate your help with understanding how spontaneously that happens : ) just by your actions. Thank you love coins

You are right @neeqi sometimes in life we need to persevere through the struggle and only then would be able to see the light at the end

Mart I am interested in this construction one must imagine sysiphous happy struggling with his rock.

keep up the good work...mind blowing to do it...just love it

Awww thats so kind of you to say hope you like the next one!! coming out soon. I enjoy you posts especially the one on lack of sleep and depression! thank you Rob.

amazing art great post

AWww John I appreciate you support thank you can you see yourself in the art ?

Great job thanks for sharing with us upvoteddd!!! Done!! Vote me back please check my true story !!

I will support you best I can bro, thank you!

Muy buena tu pintura,me encanta lo abstracto, puedo ver lo que quiera, yo interpreto tu pintura como una chispa, la chispa de la vida. Esa chispa que puede crecer y alcanzar una llamarada o simplemente deja de existir sin ni siquiera comenzar

Awww luna this is very sweet of you to say!!! thank you !!!!

At first, I get the impression of 2 struggling duck in the water until I saw the bigger picture there that looks like a bird building a nest for the babies. What a different interpretation. That's art. Indifference? Yes, because we don't know how to interpret. Let us know what they are.

Awww Rosa thats fantastic how you see it as a baby in a nest and a bird building thats amazing, lots of diffrent views its amazing thank you Rosa : )))))))

my first thought was, pain..
My interpretation of it is, or what I see is,
something got lost at sea (was it a small minnow?)
and didn't really stand a chance to survive,
perhaps because it was to dark?
Guess a big shark came and bit it on two

:)

Cryptocatz thats a great point small minnow in a great big ocean with the threat of a shark!! : (. Crypto I love your doodles ! : ) thank you

Aw thank you, very much apreciated 🤗😊

It's an abstract art right?
Your art is so striking. When I look at it it reminds me of one topic in science I taught "underwater volcanoes". 😊

Honestly for me your art symbolizes a firing desire. The desire to overcome all odds. The message being portrayed is to keep pushing until you find the way to which you could freely express yourself.

wow Karyah a firing desire!!! to overcome all to express yourself!! wow I love it! ready to errupt! congratulations of graduating uni!!! I love to come to Manila! : )

Your art says it all. 😉

At first look for me its like volcano erupting in top view. Nice style my friend. Nice interpretation also. I follow you your works is good .

bryan I see your view yes thank you! do you feel like you are in the painting ?

Honestly! At first i thought there mountains! Lol and then i began to see a different picture. It seems the painting tells a different story from different views points. You canmsee my work here @mart101

Awww thank you Mart! yes Mountains do you see your self in the picture ? I love you stuff on blockchain really like where crypto is going amazing : )

It conveys isolation. There is an island of ferocity and chaos in the middle of an ocean of grayness. I do not envy whoever has to live on the island.

The structure of our psyche is only shaped in interaction with others.

Mark i like your intellectual attempt at the idea in the painting, It does convey isolation to me too, our isolation, we are all going only one way and yes thats interesing we are shaped by others which is the highlight for me. the bumping effect! : ) thank you !

I like it.
I also like the way you promote it. ;-)
Good luck!

Thank you I really appreciate your support and your support for art thank you nexit! what do you think of the painting nexit ? your interpretation : ) you can do it!!!! : )

As if the heart wants to say everything explosively and quietly beats through.
Wonderful this painting and so you see, everyone experiences it differently. Nice👍☀️👌

AWWW thats amazing aaltje I love you interpretation its so new! i have not had this one!!! wow its so much like the painting! wow thank you!! its so indiffrent to what the heart wants! : )

For me it signifies rebirth. I feel like it needs to squeeze out to start again, like lava from a volcano, or puss from a big spot (not as glamorous, I get it) either way, it signifies to me escape, starting a fresh. The colours show variations of matter that is apart of life as we now it. A brilliant piece of work in my humble opinion.

awwww Sarah thats amazing and a very complex deep response, exactly what we on this page and was looking for the idea of a cycle, life with escape!!! The many aspects of life! I really love your interpretation its really complex thank you sarah and your spiritual work on your blog. : )

You are more than welcome, if you have anything else give us a shout :-)

My pleasure : ) x

AWww that was so kind of you to resteem the art thank you Sarah x x x im following you so I wont forget how to find you! : ) !! x

I spent a long time looking at the pic of you and the family (?) thinking 'wow, this is really good for oil painting.'

Only after reading, did I get to the piece you did.

Disclaimer: I'm no art critic. It's very interesting to look at. It seems like the sort of painting that could be viewed again and again without boredom; what you see depends on your moods or what's going on in life at that time. It seemed to me like the primordial soup of life, before evolution began, and the colourful explosions giving birth to everything in the universe.

I'd love to upvote but I've got hardly any voting power.

AWWw anj no need to upvote!!! your comments is amazing! and I love the way you describe the pimordial soup of life before evolution began!!!! im glad it has that affect, wow thank you anjkara. #quoteoftheday #givingbirthintheuniverse : ). I also love your lost skills post : ) x x x

@anjkara , I did a double take as I was reading through the comments after I had contemplated the pictures myself -
This is where my thoughts actually first went, too! -- my initial thoughts being along the lines of, what is happening here? A burst of creation from a primordial soup... A small flame which will spread warmth and life from the darkness... I was thinking about how interesting it is how something which can seem deceptively simple at first glance can contain so much depth and provoke feelings. Your interpretation is beautiful, I am also not an art critic lol but I thought it was neat that we shared some of the same thoughts.
Hi, @harj ! :) I hope you're having a happy day :) This piece brings an interesting mix of feelings, for me at least. Hidden meanings, creation fraught with struggle. Thanks for sharing it! I would love to see more.

Ah that's lovely. Great minds think alike, as they say. It is a beautiful painting. I'd never get bored of looking at it. Be well, mamatalks

I feel that too like screaming and nothing hears you imagine that. Shouting as loud as you can! I'm happy !!!! And no one hears you. Wow I can't understand that emotion so I decided to paint it. Thank you both of you . You both hear me : )))))

very good friend, what matters most are the origins and feel good with yourself because after all life is very short and you have to take advantage of it.

I like what you said gmario true insight #lifeisshorttakeadvantageofit thank you Gmario! love your into post : )

Wow, I really like the oil painting. Probably my favorite physical medium, tied to charcoal. I don't see life so insignificant and meaningless, but instead the very opposite. The universe being meaningless gives meaning to life.

Criez Yes! a meaningless universe gives life #meaninglessandlife thank you your amazing! you will reach the goal you set yourself for 2018 : ) thank you !

Every individual has something inside him that is always there but gets to keep it as it is since it is not accepted by society..

Wandergirl wow!!!! #everybodyhassomthingintrinsicly do you think the green is the bad and the colour is the good the individual ? or not ?

I really like the way that you interpreted your artwork. Kind of a wake up call when we go through stuff how small our obstacles actually are. Great work.

Thank you mallory! #howbigsmall I love that big but small viewpoint that captures my interpretation too! I really enjoyed your intro post : )

I have to be honest, that style of artwork is way beyond my understanding, however, I do find the use of colors and textures to be quite dramatic and intriguing.

hey Strypes! I love your view point in looking at the textures and colours capturing the #inner-emotion I love your orange challage enty! : ) x THANK YOU! X

lovely painting @harj! this art work is one of a kind.

Gift that is real kind of you to say! : ) I enjoy reading your gifted words too!

that is great to hear, it look like you just join steemit like me. my advice is that you should keep up the good work and the sky will not even be your limit.

Awww gift that is great advice I will tresure it! thank you : ) to the mooooon!

Hello friend, I congratulate you for a beautiful work, for me art encompasses all the creations made by human beings to express a vision. I see a small bird-type animal struggling lonely to get out of that alversity.

Hey!! yes I see that a small bird trying to get out of adversity, thats been echoed a few times here and it is exactly the problem I see. a harsh time for the bird. is that birdy us Luis ? thank you my freind : )

i taught it's fire in the ocean but after i looked deeply its art... your art super amazing

awwww Leediana thats lovely for you to say! thats : ))))! I love your anololgy a fire in the ocean. Really like your hena tattoo too x

I see an explosion going off in the middle of a large body of water. Neglect of the water caused problems below the surface?

Thank you Shaun! #problemsbelowthesurface is amazing : ) explosive!

Your painting is interesting. I appreciate other's opinions that it looks like the beginning of something, rising from the darkness. But, I could also see it as the last bit of flame ready to extinguish, in the middle of all it has consumed. It's a painting that can elicit so many feelings. Keep it up my friend!

Thats the first time I have heard that Kunschj! #readytoextinguish thank you so much : ))))))

This art reminds me a Kilauea volcano in Hawaii Island. It looks like the energy coming out from the earth. I felt huge power under the gray ground. I really enjoyed your art✨👍

Aloha! thats amazing crystal! #powerunderthegreyground thank you! wish I could exprieance that too x

I really like this piece as well. It is like a lone sole in an "emptiness". Yet even though alone, its colours are shining.
Be happy with who you are. Don't worry what others think. Life is "small".

dad!! thank you for your message! #aloneshining your an amazing dad! : )

You art is amazing @harj , hmm I am not that good interpreter about art but when I looked at your paint . It seems like something or it looks like a bird and it is struggling to swim from being drown .

In life , we might suffer from depression or loneliness. Sometimes we ended up losing the meaning to live life but if we look at the bright side we can overcome the darkness . All we need to do is interact and socialize to have a better meaning in life . Find ways so that you shine brightly to others . :)

OH, that's it . I am not sure if you would like my interpretation but overall . I am looking forward to more of your art . Followed and upvoted . Hope you check my posts too :) Thanks.

Best regards,
@joancabz

Joan that is a great interpretation how you use a bird stuggling and compare that to us dealing with loneliness and life. I see what you see and its easy to end up in a dark place with no light.

likeabird

Thank you Joan : )

I appreciate your response :) looking forward to more of your art :)

it looks like those big gold and white carps splashing around in the water without a care if they are seen or not. I love it! You got talent. Thanks for sharing

AWww purple that is so sweet of you to say, i really like your interpretaion daisy. #yougottalent : )

This post has received a 38.2 % upvote from @boomerang thanks to: @harj

The title really captures the message depicted in the painting. Looking at the painting, it extends beyond the literal meaning to include all who are in different to what goes on around them. From a literal point, it appears as something colorful trapped in the sea. But figuratively, it includes all who are indifferent to happenings in the world. They stay fixed in their own little corner with the, "it doesn't concern me" attitude. Great art. Great artist. Nice.

Awww that's a lovely interpretation not looking out and so there is nothing. Yes I too see many who think like this and it's emotional and hard not to be, as it affects everyone thank you with love Harj. #weareinthistogether

very interesting friend

Awww you found it adi!!! thank you : )

You are welcome, friend

what is your interpretation Adi : )

I do not understand friends

Your interpretation of my art ? ;)

it something like about to eruption, I felt like it.good job

Wonderful I like it Adil!!! #ifeelit

success is always a friend, but I am not as fortunate as you, I feel sad

nice work. so impressed!

Awww thank you good! what is your interpretaion of this art! ? : )

it something like about to eruption, I felt like it.

awww thank you goodcontent4u! I like it! #eruptionofemotions

Great painting！The surrounding light colors can be good to set off the middle of it.

axhquan I agree with you that is a big diffrence and is the strange part why is there somthign in the middle and not all green ? #surroundinglight

Wow this is very deep

Aww efetarhena!!! thank you I try to follow my heart! : ) #deep

That is some amazing art work my friend. I love that. Timeless and magic!
Thank you for sharing. Cheers! ☺️

Awwww I’m glad you appreciate it Sara, what is your interpretation ? Would love to know

My pleasure my friend 😉 really amazing art.
My interpretation in what? Sorry for asking just some words that I don't really know.
If I know what it means I love you share 😉

I would love to get your interpretation on my art work the painting indifference : )

I've come to the conclusion that I don't understand/relate to many forms of interperation. My mind works in a different way than most, I understand physical materials and numbers clearly.

Ed wow Iv not heard that one yet, but it's a good one! I see your point, it's great to meet someone who see art in that way and is able to say it. Thank you Ed #mymindisdifferent : )

It makes me feel pain, powerful art but I wouldn't wan't it on my wall. Looks like something that should go in a library in the non-fiction section.

Good I too feel your pain with life, it's vulnerability, it's shortness, the effort in looking after it and knowing that I could make better choices in life but choose not too is human, that is us. Feeling the pain of other and being unable to act. Regretable choices only humans can make. Thank you godo #pain

the colors are perfect :) to me it means a spark burning somewhere inside us all opposing the system and injustice to others and ourselves.

but thats just me. anyways, beautiful work

Herbert thank you! yes we are treated badly alot and that's part of life when we as a race get things wrong we have the ability to also get it dam right. Fantastic interpretation! #perfectcolors : ) thank you Herbert Holmes

This is beautiful ! Nice work !!

AWww your a star! akkkha! #beautifulartwork :)

Thank you so much my friend !

this is very cool my friend. Its like a burst of pressure from the land, a sky view of a volcano.

awww yeah I like your intense interpretation Soundlegion! #burstland

AWWw thank you julie i like your flower idea burning : ) #burningflower :)

Hey Harj!

Thanks for reaching out to me via my image on Steepshot.

So glad you did as it seems we have similar thoughts and ideals.

This painting is primordial in feel and I am sure the textures of the original are integral to this work and it's inherent energy.

I love it.

:)

For now I have only posted my digital illustration work with my writing but I am also a fine artist working in various mediums.

Upvoted/Followed I invite you to pass by mine and hopefully we can encourage one another on our creative ways.

Kind wishes.

xox

wow ldacey so many beautiful compliments from a beautiful woman thank you !!! I can see the primordial and its so scary to know billions of years have past before we were born!! wow and we are so lucky to have been born!!! thank you for the support #primordialtextures ; )

Its really different. Deep thought. Very beautiful art.

thank you coolclub yes I think this is a deep philosophical painting! and I want everyone to see this painting before it goes down my posts : ( #artneverdies

This gives me an existential feeling. The start of an eruption in the emptiness. I like the way it becomes 3 dimensional. Some super force trying to blast through the darkness.
First it looked to me like a steel plate banged upon the back. Same energy I guess. Very strong @harj !

wow thats an amazing insight! and very novel in many ways ! richard I like it also and its very close to my interpretation thank you bro! #findinghappinessinemptiness

This is a cool painting. Not gonna lie, it reminds me of a black orange and white gold fish, or the Clownfish like Nemo. I like it in color too, nice contrast. Good artwork man

awwww edgar yes I have heard that and can see that! a fish struggling but I like to think a fish having a PARTAY!! : ) in the sea on its own. lol #edgarlovesart

Excellent work, it always amazes me how many talented steemians there are that I have not found yet! But I got you now!

Dylan thats is the kindest thing to say its heart felt thank you, wish I could give you a hug : ) #Bighugs4dylan

Wow! This is stellar. I really like this work---well done.

awww big panda! your a stellar panda! thank you for your compliments #bigstellarartpanda

Hello Friend, love your work! I can see the bird the ladybird. Keep up with the good work! You have my support! ;)

awwww thank you dragoni!!! aww thats sweet ! I love your art too human evolution is amazing !!! thank you

I abSOULutely LOVE this piece @harj... I see the Silent Observer peeking through the veil :) Verrrrrryyyyy Niiiiice <33333

Bright Blessings!

wow yes life can be like that or is like that!! thank you thereikiforest! #veiloftruth

Your artwork "indifference" is truly amazing. I've never seen anything like your artwork before. At first glance I didn't quite understood it but as I kept on looking at it, your painting "indifference" looks like a bird. It portrays something like as if the bird is different than any other birds but that difference made it look like the bird has something more than being different. Like something more to show. That the bird being different radiates through the night showing the beautiful fiery side of itself. Your artwork is really one of kind. It's really beautiful. 😊

wow thank you christney that is so kind of you to say and a wonderful observation! wow!!! I love your interpretation of a bird like no other! Its so important to be who you are in your heart. #likenoother : )

Great art work first and foremost @harj I tend to feel sometimes as little or as insignificant our lives may seem to the universe it has its purpose, every action we take as individuals somehow sums up collectively to a grand total, if you see a man at the beach with a spoon shovelling sand you may laugh and say "he'd spend forever doing that" but if he where at it day and night for weeks, months and years to come you'd be amazed at how much sand he had moved, we don't take note of the little things here on planet earth but everything we do sums up in the end. What would be the outcome? I don't know but I'm pretty sure the unexpected is waiting for us all. We marvel and make wishes at shooting stars but they where once a planet before they turned into that ball of flames...that's something to think about, a process occurred for hundreds of years before it got to that stage. Hope that brought a lil clarity? Cheers mate

wow kingzeus I love your summing up and it was so well said!!! we all try to improve our lives give in meaning. like a squirl trying to find a nut and hide it for summer, find a partner, have children love.

I am deliberately avoiding the other commentors' posts until I post my interpretation. My first association is with images sent by various spacecraft showing aerial views of a mountain on the surface of the planet Mars. Perhaps a volcano.

Wow I'm glad you did as this is a new insight for me thank you mona. I noticed how you include the whole picture and not like me just the parts #lifeonmars : )

Great! The 'Mars mountain' thought really was the first association that came to my mind.

What do you think of Mars Momadnock life or a dead planet ?

I like your piece, it is very striking and your description is great, I think it is wonderful that you can describe the piece so well ... I myself usually refrain from explaining any of my larger artpieces ( for the past 20+ years... merely because I prefer to hear the viewers take on what they see ....and I do not want to influence them in the experience of my art .... or in other words I am not great at explaining my art ...but lovely to see your piece and to read your words on it !

Awww that's is something that I thought but as the artist also had a interpretation I wanted to let that happen. But as we have seen in this post we all bring a valued insight. #variationofart

Wow, this is a nice one..

I love the touch of textures you gave to this work and more especially the firy 🔥 colors you made.

Your viewpoint is also great.

Nice work mate

It's amazing how your interpretation touches on the texture which at the time of creating did not cross my mind but now I value because of insight by Steemians like you #thesteemianinsight :)

Lol

You are welcome bro

: ) thank you jacobite

Really awe inspiring, at first glance it seemed to me a fiery tear on iron a still picture of the impact.
Then taking a look from a far I started seeing it as a small expanding universe fighting, but so small that may look meaningless.
Give some minutes and I feel drawn to it and I want to get as close as I can back to watch its details again, limping flames and exploding lights.
They have energy to spare but don't know their direction on the grey surface. Yet?
Then a full eye popped from the reds to my mind, well done so many layers to this painting
Wish I could see it IRL :) Have a nice weekend!

This is a very intriguing and well developed assessment I appreciate your efforts and it's amazing how much more we can see with your insight. It creates a platform of discovery. #discovery : )

I love building bonfires during the dark winter time here in Finland.
On your canvas I see this large black area of burned out wood and this small spark trying to survive.
I relate to that as the dark winter surrounds me and tries to put me off. But you can never tell if the wind rises and takes you to a nearby pile of wood or into dry bushes and then you will give all of your power to destroy and create.
The sun is about to rise here and then the month-long night is over. I feel like a survivor, like the spark in the nowhere, now here. :D
I'll follow you. Thank you for your art.

Thank you! hantulio Could you please put your interpretaion on my last art post called "indiffrence" for all of us, your insight would help us : )

With love

harj : ) xoxo
Abstract artist

WOW, this painting speaks to me. One man stands out amoung many, he portraits to me that we all are different in our own way but yet are as a grain of sand in this crazy ride we know as life.... . excellent piece!

Vloren wow I love this interpretation its amazing it's spot on! What a beautiful yet scary life thank you

really beautiful art! good gob :)

Awww thank you meert :)

It is always fascinating what one can see and iterprete the abstract art.

Your painting looks like super nova explosion in the vast cosmic ocean.
Even the black and white picture makes it look more realistic.

Awww yes a explosion of life in the cosmic ocean is exactly what I wanted to achieve thank you #lifeinthecosmicocean. : )

Every Start is crucial for development.
I think, even though its your first painting, the title "Indifference" suits it.

Morever, I hoping to see more of your paintings from now on. :)

Awww thank you this was the first I did and will be adding more. I'm glad it's a good fit. : )

Yeah.. Some plain and simple paintings get sold for millions. You could become a billionaire if you are lucky :D

Hi steemians, I really appreciate your art. It's so nice to share my interpretation here. For me your art is all about the love, joy, and hate that we encounter here in our world, but even though there is hate, we stay as ONE.
The red one represent as Love, while the white one is Joy and the black one is Hate. All colors painted as ONE and that is our WORLD. @harj #OneWorld

one Hennessy that's lovely for you to say I agree with you so much war is a sad thing and we are all we have. We need peace.

Very interesting how it combines the paradoxical tensions so smoothly. And I really like your interpretation. Good work!

awww thank you raci! i like your view very interesting yes I feel that tension with the stiking contrast! : )

@you commented on one of my posts recently so I thought I'd look at your profile. I like the art piece. Some simple people might say it's all black with a red dot but it is a lot more than that. There's a strory. A feeling it gives off. A very good painting.

its very amazing painting and impresse me, because i like abstract art and i hope to see your new paintings soon.

Awww thank you, yes I want to do new post today : ) #abstractart

Hi. Interesting painting.
But i have to criticise a little bit.
(technical details criticism begins here) The tension of color to form is off by a little bit. The spaces you crated for the background are too indifferent to have allot of impact. A little life would help. More structure. (technical details criticism over)
(personal criticism starts here)
To make this clear: i don´t hate the painting, i just have some problems with Art that seams to come with a manual. But that´s just my opinion and please don´t take my words to seriously i can´t explain the world.
(personal criticism over)
(poetic part)
To come to a conclusion: If i just see the painting on its own, it creates a story in my head. Like a lonely campfire seen from an Airplane. Or more sinister a burning house in a desert.

Even as a fan of traditional art, i think this is a good painting
(sorry for the bad english it is not my first Language)

Thank you for this feed back, I like your sense of a burning in a dessert. It is the lack of relationships between the two that I try to capture. Thank you #fireanddesert

But also a fire in a desert has a relationship to the desert. Fires cant exist in a vacuum. That makes true indifference impossible.

our relationship is going beyond the fire in the desert. #indifference is beyond the human but we experience it as we see it, we exist.

No manual with this art just us sharing glimpse of insight our individual interpretations. Mine is no more valid than yours.

I love it. It reminds of an open wound. Thanks for sharing.

Awww yes I can see that! Thanks you limma

It's called being a grain of sand in the universe. to be a pimple on the body of the earth

That's us fresh a grain of sand wow

I like the idea of painting, but too dark to put it in my living room if u know what I mean. However, i think u are talented and should keep up your work. Cheers, pocketrocket

Awww its in my living room and I can say it looks very nice. I'm sure you would like it : ) pocket

Realy thats a great work, being different is always noticeable the brightest shines and makes its surrounding more effective and exposive.

awww thank you hotvines yes I try to do what i think is right for me and im smiling you appreciate it! xxx

I like the small figure in open space. It could be the big bang or it could be something terrible like a plane getting shot down or it could be the remains of a bug on a window. It represents the primoridial figures of life and death... a moment where the world stopped. It might be significant or it might not, but having to ponder the significance is largely significant enough to understand the impact of this impression of oil on canvas.

Yes exactly and if there is a relationship between them and I feel it's on of indifference thank you bell yes it is life and nothingness.

It’s really a beautiful painting. So mesmerising! I am not really an abstract person, but I just love the bluewish color all around. I feel like I am on a plane or a helicopter looking down into the middle of this ocean and I can see something, which looks a rock and ocean and waves. Could be an island? I am not sure but this is what I see. And it is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing beauty into this world. - love

awww yes thats great and your trying to focus on what that small things is and you see it!!! wow #iseeyouothersdont #yourmine

cool now FOLLOWING you!

awww jacinta thank you! looking forward to your interpretion on my art newest post called "Kurtd Cobain" : )

youre welcome
its glowing
interesting use of emphasis and subordination
color theory
the light and dark!

awwww im so glad you put the effort into my artwork and made this statement with your findings. xxx

I would have loved to see this in real life! But this will do. It is really good. The work speaks out to the viewer. But the words the viewer hear is not a soft whisper, but a shout; an angst-filled scream to let him/her out. The single focus point on the artwork is like a single scream in the middle of the universe with only darkness around you, no one can hear the screams but you.
But this work is also a soft whisper into the ears of those who understand that being lonely is not that bad. It is a comfort for those who accept the fate of being alone in your mind, in a way locked up away from the rest of the world.
I love this artwork. Your feelings of hope and dispair shine through.

I have a similar artwork, I would love to hear your interpretation!

This feels like a very powerful piece. A clean slate, literally! and on it or through it there bursts the fire of existence and or destruction. at least that is how I interpret it.

yes thank you Sisterartlab! yes thats what I see existence with a burst and nothing else which makes me sad : ( thank you X

Wow brother, really intense! The red one spouts out at the eye. It feels to me like a strong, precise feeling, I could feel it in my chest too. To me it says really obvious force of life in the middle of an environment that lacks feelings or aliveness. I feel very much like this painting when I stay in the city too much lol. It calls for change, or something needs to be taken attention to at least. My 3 cents.

Bravo!

awww thank you ikialyfe I really like your interpretation its lovely x x x
