The Beauty of the Dark by Roshawndra

The Beauty of the Dark by Roshawndra - January 2019 Scholarship Essay

“I find it so much easier to be creatively free at night. Daytime is for sleeping. Nighttime is the best time for making art. The later at night it gets the further into another world you go” the words of Mark Ryden. My brain works well when the earth is at rest. In the night time, I have no limitations. While it is daylight, everyone is trying to complete their daily tasks. I do not want any barrier for me being able to create. In the daytime, a lot of people’s brains are going haywire. An environmental interruption such as people, noise, and lights can stop my creative flow.
However, at night time, I can relax and allow my brain to do all the work. In the nighttime, there are not any distractions. While the earth is at rest and at peace, I am up and moving. Completing every task that I could not complete while the earth is moving. Peace and relaxation are what makes me the most productive. It gives me time to reflect and think. I can produce mass quantities of art when I am left alone to be creative. While everyone is sleeping, I do not have to worry about others opinions on what I do and what I create. My brain and I make a great team. No outside influences can compare to what my brain and I can create while we are alone and it is quiet.
