I notice that in my art I am trying to add multiple mediums into one piece. Not just the traditional forms such as painting, drawing, and pastel but other digital and constructive forms such as 3D, digital photography, Illustration and photo manipulation. In my confused mess I realize that I like this "mess" Because It kind of reminds me of my life. All the confusion and frustration, the love and passion and the moments in between. We all go through this mess we call life with very little clarity. Then in a moments notice all of the things in our day to day align together in to a moment of clarity and then "Ah-ah!!" all of our toil and construction and learning and creating makes since. We realize the potential of such a moment we bask in it’s divine light. Then that moment starts to fade and we go right back looking for new answers.
This "thought" of mine reminds me of my work. all this chaos all come together in a moment of clarity but everything else feels just on the surface. I think I like that on the surface stuff because it’s incomplete. Incompletion in my mind can be beautiful. as long as you understand where the incompletion comes from.
It’s important for me to write these little realizations down. I understand so much more when I talk things out and talk to others about my idea. even if the other does not understand what it is that I am thinking they ask the right questions that lead to my right answers. I think I’m going to start posting these little Ideas I have and see what you all think of them. hey some times the best thought is from the conversation we have…… even when you have not read what I have just wrote…. thank you for this little chat.
