Free Writing. John Pule There Will Be Another Time,

John Pule - There Will Be Another Time 

 This is one of John Pules' work from the exhibition "Another Green World". John uses a limited color pallet, the main colors he uses are green white and black. The mediums he uses are oil, ink and pencil on canvas, its 201x 188 cm. The painting is an abstract painting with images of the green clouds and the vines repetitive in the painting. The other paradox figures in this painting are creatures that are very interesting. They look like predators and very dangerous. They also look like their stuck in another world and are suffering. The painting also has a bit of motifs but I don't think they have a specific meaning. Over all, I think the painting from my point of view conveys another different world a world from a myth that the artist is interested in.

My Influence

My Mother. 

From the day I was brought to earth there was always that one person that was always there for me, my mum, my world, my everything . I wouldn't be the person I am today if I didn't have her. I know people would say that of course your mum will always be there, because shes your mum, she has to love you. Yeah! but shes also has her own choices, especially after everything shes been through the past few years.  She still manage to hold us up, all six of us, me my brother and my little sisters. She still manage to have the same strong voice. The voice that has been my guide line from the first time I could understand the meaning of words, and I forever thank God for that. I know most time she speaks in such tone, it drives me crazy, but when I look back to it, the most important things in life she's expressed it in such tone. I think its because she knows  that I'm a hard headed person.  Her advices also made me a strong person, ; "Grace don't give up be strong, Stop being shy it will do you no good, study hard, stay away from boys, and always remember your God!"  Now that I have and idea of what the world and society is about, shes all I depend on to get through, one day I wish to be a intelligent and a strong women like her.
