Life.Life.Life.....What does it mean? So many people around the world could probably give you millions of different definitions just for a single word. Expressive,Disappointing,Annoited,Clear,Unsatisfying,Lonely,Adoring,Happy,C aring,Greatful,Appreciative,and so many other words that could identify your life. What words would you use to help describe your new leash on life? Your new beginning or maybe even just a realization that you are unique to everyone and everything. What compells you as an artist? What thrusted you into the realm of artistry? What moment in time made you realize that "I can"? Do you remember the emotion that set you forth into a new world? Was it depression,lust or maybe even love? So many questions to uphold before yourself to only question..."who am I?" What provoked me into this idea of mainstream collaged brainstorming psychotic venue we call Art. Something that can be born through imagination and given birth through creativity. What pushes us to want,need, and even doubt ourselves when we are the ones who imagined and brought forth our own individual selves in a manner worth expecting. Others see us as "the artist" ,and all it entails. Such vision and excitement they see , but what if what drives us isn't excitement at all..it's just our own inner will to survive through visual stimulants that we call art. Paints,Oils,Acrylics,pencils,charcoal,photography....you name it we envision it. We can open worlds with our minds,unlock deep mysteries, decode the most intellectual minds in history through our own psychological artistic minds. Some people do not understand the depth in which an artist is compelled to drive themselves into insanity until we get how we feel and think across to someone else. That feeling of completion is so rewarding. The finished product, the last word, and that spacial look of your critiquer,admirer, and possible buyer actually getting "it". The simple thought, the most intellectual of thoughts.. broken down into such a way that you see a facial "Whoa,Wow, or How did they?" and the one we all want to hear..I love their art work and I get it. I understand the time,work, and effort put into their work and I applaud your talents, gifts and visual intuity you have given us all. I know you have all put me in an "AWE" state of mind and this is me giving recognition to everyone  that, "I get it, I understand it and I applaud your efforts." I can see so much talent that you ooze inspiration coming from every pore of your bodies. Thank you :) and you put me in "AWE".
