“Art is everywhere.
Art opened my heart.
Art made me explode with desire.
Art stopped me in my tracks.
Art told me never to look back.
Art doesn’t want it to be that hard.
I was seasoned and trained,
But I was afraid of sharing my creations with others.
On a dare, I dove in and discovered even more.
Unprepared, breaking patterns of an old and tired “Type-A” prototype,
Now, raw now and exposed…”
I was scared to share with others, a real fear that my heart would be ripped out from rejection, not understanding then, the concept and worth of deep gratitude and expression through original art.
As if you found a diary, a long diary that captivated you. Once you became part of the story, the world became muffled. When you read the last page, it felt like a breakup. You scrambled to savor the moment, and yet it ended so fast. When you finally forgot, you discovered a new journal.
That is what art is like when you create it. It leads you on its own journey. I am the hands, I am the mind, I am the soul on this earth, undefined, actually, as it all changes in a split second into a new form of art.
