Some Thoughts on Art

Art is an expression of joy and awe. It is not an attempt to share one's virtues and accomplishments with the audience but an act of selfless spirit. Our effect is not for us to know. It is not in our control. Only our intention is under our control. As we strive to make our intentions pure, devoid of the desire to manipulate, and clear, directed to a concrete, easily stated end, our performances become pure and clear. 

Eleven o'clock always comes. In the meantime, may you know the happiness of working to serve your own good opinion. Invent nothing, deny nothing, speak up, stand up, and stay out of school.

Another experiment in photography of myself:

I need a studio...maybe build one?

Two Children and a Child

i was on the subway last night and i witnessed on of the most bizarre events in my young life.

A young woman came on the subway with an infant in her arms; with a young man following, obviously a significant other, or at least the father of the child. She immediately sat down on one of the subway benches and he was aggressively pacing around the rear of the train near to where she was sitting.

I don't recall what she said to him, but he replied with a constant demand..."Give me my son." He repeatedly professed her to "give him his son", but she did not comply. He started to raise his voice and continually repeat said demand. 

These young parents were no older than 20 or 21. They exited the train at the very next stop. As soon as the doors opened, she rushed out and he, still verbally stalking her, followed.

This opened my eyes a tad more to what some people go through. 

I am very happy I moved here. I am trying to find classes in photography. I think more than painting, I am lured by photography. I am going to start taking photos of myself to test out to see if I have any talent.

seeing the brooklyn, my brooklyn

i recently moved to brooklyn. i dropped out of school and decided to move to the city to become an artist. i told my parents and they were surprisingly supportive. i haven't told anyone else....well i don't really know anyone else, so there's no one to tell.

i am very excited. maybe once in my life i am confident in a choice that i have made. i am going to take classes and get a job FIRST OF ALL. 

let's hope this works out...i'm nervous, but isn't that a good feeling?

season confusion

season confusion: a poem

Remember the snow of December 

and the smile of September

See the chill of January 

erode into February

pray for the sun of April

to melt the snow in March
