There is always another level, deeper depth, higher heights. 

Please see another drawing in these series. Though it was originally not inspired by the words of Rumi, it can be a perfect, literal illustration to this thought "When you are born a ladder is placed in front of you so you can escape this world"
We know that that "escape" is more likely be through spiritual work - yet a ladder can become a figurative illustration of this idea.  

This way a ladder, an ordinary household item, may have a double life, secret life, and a metaphysical meaning.  

BE AWARE: the paper and drawing are 20 years old, there may be imperfections on the edges, yellowing not captured on the camera. It doesn't look destroyed, only naturally bitten by the tooth of time.

Making art is like contemplation. Like a contemporary prayer it brings peace. It feels like writing poetry with line and color. In my past life I was a medieval monk who decorated manuscripts. Creativity for me is about improvisation, and about going deep: and exploring the subject... be it a line or color, as long as it's alive in our hands. This aliveness could be a test of artist's integrity. Once a subject is "dead" there is no reason to continue working on it, even though it may be "selling well". Currently what's alive for me is: ink, fountain pen and smooth paper, colored pencils and gold. Strong skills in anatomy drawing. Born in Poland, in 1974. Living in Arizona, USA since 2000. Making art for 24 years. Now returning, after a creative winter.
