Fine Line Between Genius And Obsession

The iconic, legendary, theoretical phycist Albert Einstein finally completed. He's easily the most famous and recognized physicist-- I couldn't think of a single person who cannot name him nor pick him out in a photo. This man is a genius and I would love to spend one day walking through his mind and in his shoes.

There is a fine line between brilliance and obsession-- I know all too well. I know what it's like to have an itching to excel in the things you do and a hunger to solve the universe. I don't think there's always an answer as to why things happen, but there's always an answer to how things happen. Some people believe everything happens for a reason. Wrong. Don't kid yourself with such high self-importance (that's me sugar-coating it). Though everything happened as a consequence from prior events. That's why I'm so fascinated with the universe which we know so little of. Not to mention it's beauty and Einstein shared the same feelings. I don't know what took me so long to do a portrait of him and I'm more than proud to add this my portfolio.
