Like a Body of Water

"Start a blog!", "you should start a blog", "do you blog?" Yes Yes
I have heard it over and over so. Here I am creating this blog to explore ideas, explore thoughts and explore the expansive body of water that surrounds us all. Sometimes its good to write and get things out. I have alot of dreams and ideas. Dreams and things I should say lol. So whats an artist to do when it comes to still water? Writers have writers block. Artist have.....art blocks?! lol well how does an artist channel any and every kind of feeling and emotion into art? So I create when I'm inspired, but what about the times when i'm not feeling so inspired or when I feel stuck? Join me as I push forward to learn more about myself as an artist, as a creator; as I explore the vast water of thoughts, dreams and ideas. How complicated are things sometimes. Why is it so easy for everything going around me to influence whether or not i'm creating.  I know I should always be creating. And what about... environment? What happens when you are inspired from going different places or one is inspired during such a stay? What happens when one leaves? How does one create the environment for consistent inspiration even in the midst of madness, border,and any other social issue effecting ones life. There is so much to write about. So much to think about. Sometimes I just want to fly away to another world. Sometimes I look at very old works of art and wonder...where the hell did that come from? Diamonds created in the midst of the madness. So the artist speaks now. I'm ready to take the journey inside and figure it all out. Where to go from here...is only to be determined.

  1. Thanks for sharing this Ish. I think that as an artist, you dwelve into a place that inspires you when something from your environment strikes you. I like to write so whatever strikes me I write about it although I am in the writer's block position right about now I keep on keepin' on at times. Your art expresses who you are and who you are at the moment or in the past or what you want to be in the future. Keep channeling your creativity, 'cuz I know you'll make something beautiful even in the midst of chaos.

  2. Thank you nightshade. Yes when we write and create we have to know we can do so about every situation. You are right about that! Let the stars be born out of the night and create a beautiful painting.
