The Artist Is.....

The passion to create art brings with itself an unimaginable power of healing and beauty. Creativity can be seen as the greatest prayer as it connects us directly to a higher consciousness.Tapping in its resources requires faith in our ability to be actively patient. It requires confidence in the path that is revealing itself to us in, sometimes, mysterious ways.

 For art to be great, it has to come from truth. 
Truth is contained within experiences of contrast and unconditional love for life. It transforms the artist into...

A collector and a collection

          An seeker and a discovery

                A medium and a meaning

                        A channel and a creation

                              A response and a question

                        A mirror and a source

               A catalyst and a comforter

          A leader and a disciple

 A rebel and a change

On Belonging and Critical Thinking

Lately, I’ve been thinking about the tension between critical thinking and the desire to be accepted and belong. Somehow my mind always seems to circle back to one particular issue: the price many are prepared to pay just to feel they belong. To them, avoiding standing alone at all costs often overrules the damaging impact social pressure can have on the ability to perceive clearly and think objectively. Neil Postman, one of the most eloquent media theorists and a cultural critics of the 20th century, claimed that every technological innovation has its own agenda. Once we adopt the new invention, we become (mostly without realizing it!) part of its manner of dictating the rules of reality. The same, I believe, holds true for any system, culture, tradition, community, country and policy, when embraced in a blind and desperate rush. In order to benefit from it, we’re required to comply with its postulates. In order to be accepted, we’re often asked to leave out most of what makes us

Musings on Creative Freedom

As an artist, creator and thinker, a llow yourself to: be fully born do nothing make/do something for yourself only play for play's sake change your mind and rethink your identity, brand, values, principles, opinions if you deem it necessary build upon the work of others integrate all that you are into what you create start where you are with what you've got impose your own limitations and rules to up your art game a notch build a habit and unlearn it if you wish make stuff and destroy it from time to time not allow everyone's opinion to be the measure of your work's worth and affect your desire to create appear and disappear authentically express yourself even if it means you might upset someone create work that feeds your soul (not just your ego!) ask questions others have not asked before answer questions that others have already answered but you haven't yet not say anything if you don't feel you've got something to say hurry slowly s
