I think i want to steer my own course and something about creating paintings and photography does that for me... it is a product of me.I like me and i value me. Totally my choice as to colour shape and form meaning and expression.... and in the end i worked it out. I want to make art because i CAN and i have decided it is important....as am i.<BR/><BR/>I want to share my excitements and discoveries and views with others and sometimes i suspect its about lifting up what i value for everyone to NOTICE what it is i am saying.....in other words to lead ....<BR/><BR/>seems to me that art is not only expression and a product but it is a business and i need to keep reminding myself of that.... some decisions don't on the surface seem to make sense but i want to look back and see no room for regret in my life.....<BR/><BR/>I say hold onto the steering wheel and stter your own path is my greatest purpose... perhaps it is yours too... i sense it is similar...<BR/><BR/>we only get one shot at THIS life and i suggest you can only control YOURSELF.... you have embarked on the course involving art so make sure it is you who is steering your art your business and your choices. That is what is the purpose after all self sustainability ... and i honestly think that well someone has to push our cultural boundaries and i nominate me cause i can.<BR/><BR/>something to think about isn't it.Redreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08945189047249283578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35399295.post-33210787300755225632007-09-02T11:37:00.000-05:002007-09-02T11:37:00.000-05:00This is such a wonderful post.

I've discovered that my purpose is to be happy, create art, and make a living from my art. For me anyway, it makes no difference how that living is made(ie galleries or online), it matters only that I am enjoying life and creating art!<BR/><BR/>Peace! :)Paula Manning-Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18332808733874164921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35399295.post-87881985656817652092007-08-26T19:48:00.000-05:002007-08-26T19:48:00.000-05:00Jessica,WOW!!!
