Arts & Humanities - 6 May 2007

I sold one today. It was a painting I only finished two days ago. A painting I really didn’t get a chance to sit back and look at and savor. All I have now is photographic copies of it:

I sold this for many reasons. The sale will help me restock a supply of canvases, brushes and paints. It also seems to validate the artist’s efforts to sell a painting now and then, doesn’t it?

So, when someone offers to buy one your works what is your honest, realistic reasons for selling your art? Validation? You need the money? You hope it will lead to fame and fortune? You hope somehow it will get you laid?

Be honest.

Any thoughts?

"We ourselves must pilgrims be,
Launch our Mayflower, and steer
Boldly on the desperate winter sea,
Nor attempts the Future's portal
With the Past's blood-rusted key."

James Russell Lowell, 1819-1891
AMERICAN POET, ABOLILITIONIST & DIPLOMAT

I love to write. Stories, poems, songs. But, I want to be better at writing. I'm trying to find good writing methods I could use. I'm really really young and still in middle school (Yes, THAT young). I don't want to ask my english teacher for better methods because she's such a pain, and her method sucks. I really don't want to buy any books on writing eaither cause my mom will ask what it's for (she's really nosey) and I really don't want her to read any of my work. I know I'm being difficult but, please help!

I'm writing a book. (not to get published, just for my entertainment.) It's about a girl who moves to Seattle Washington and she finds out she's part wolf. She's apart of a wolf pack and she and Sam, the pack leader, like each other. I've run out of ideas for the moment. Do you guys have any?

We are all like machines. Brainwashed from early childhood to live in a bubble, with certain beliefs and ideas. As a result we have created these destructive societies. We are very afraid to question our beliefs.
Is this possible to free the human mind, so that we can see things as they are? I emphasize, free not redecorate?
