when should we be sure if an art object is really an art object?
how do we know that what we see in an art show (exhibition) or on the street, is or isn't art?

I have checked out 4 books of short stories. I want to read as much as I can from each to get a good grasp of well-written short stories. I also hope to finish writing 2 short stories, 2 non-fiction articles(or personal essays) and continue working on my novel.

I desperately want to know the title and author of a painting. I saw it with my mother between 1993-1995 in a gallery in the El Paseo Shopping District in Palm Desert, CA. It was very large (over 5X5 ft.) and it was a painting of a small child, i think a little girl. From what I remember it was in sepia tones or something similar, and somewhat sketch-looking. The little girl's face took up the majority of the canvas, and I believe she was wearing a hat, perhaps straw. The price was circa 10,000 dollars then. It is my mother's favorite painting but she knows nothing about it, I want to buy it for her one day for everything she's done for me. Thank you so much for your time. : }

...I am getting lazy and waiting for the right or ripe moment for the inspiration instead of being proactive and taking initiative for achieving my goals or does it mean that I have surrendered myself to the higher powers of intuition and heart's understanding to guide me and to follow through my goals in the most effiecient manner? In other words should I always go with the flow or will I sometimes sail agaisnt the wind or the important thing is to just to sail?

The first idea is Iron Errol Harvey. It takes place in the late 1600s. It's about a Commodore, commander of the HMS Luna. While on a trip to another port city she's seiged by a pirate ship, and the man's recruited as a member of the crew, and turns pirate.

The next is Phantasmagoria. It's about an outcasted boy who starts to go insane out of a need for a social life. He begins hearing voices and they become complete hallucinations.

The other is Keeper of the Peace. It's a drama/fantasy about a kid who's studying a magical art who is transported to a different dimension. He has to learn how he got there so he can get back.

The last is Valentine's Regime, about a post-apocalyptic dictator who forms an army and takes supreme power over most of the world.

So do you think you would read any of these books? None are finished. I hardly have manuscripts, so for more detail, give your email address, and I'll give you the information I couldn't fit.

Thanks

AND ALSO WHILE I WRITE THIS
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
AS I DO MY LITTLE SIS
MOMMY I THOUGHT YOU CHANGED
MOMMY I MISS YOU SO
IVE BEEN TORN INTO PEICES
EVER SINCE YOU MADE ME GO

A BITTER SAD GOODBYE

MOMMY IM SORRY
FOR BEING YOUR MISTAKE
BUT YOUR REJECTIONS AT IT AGAIN
IM ALMOST READY TO BREAK
YOURE THE COOLEST MOM IN THE WORLD
MOMMY YOURE MY FAVORITE PERSON EVER

TO KNOW THAT NOW YOU DONT WANT TO BE TOGETHER
I WONDER WHY GOD

WE HAVE SO MUCH STRIFE
MOMMY I WONDER WHAT THE FUTURE BRINGS
I WONDER IF YOULL EVER STOP
IT MAKES ME WANNA PICK UP A GUN
PUT IT TO MY HEAD AND LET IT POP
YOU CAN BE SO NICE
BUT CHANGE IN AN FLASH
RIGHT WHEN I DIDNT EXPECT IT
A PAINFUL EMOTIONAL LASH
MOMMY WHEN YOU CAME INTO MY LIFE AGAIN IT WAS GREAT
I THOUGHT WE WOULD STAY TOGETHER
YOU SAID YOUD SAVE ME FROM HERE
NOW YOU SAY NEVER
MOMMY I WISH I COULD GO BACK
I COULD HELP YOU WHEN YOU GOT HURT
ID PICK YOU UP WHEN YOU FELL OFF YOUR BIKE
AND WIPE OFF ALL THE DIRT
MOMMY WHY DO YOU CHANGE

RIGHT AFTER I START GETTING ALONG WITH DAD
YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I WANNA BE DEAD
MOMMY KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU
MOMMY KNOW THAT I WOULD NEVER HURT YOU
MOMMY KNOW THAT I MISS YOU
MOMMY KNOW THAT ONCE YOU LOVED ME BACK

We come On


We come on
To be heard
We come on
To be assured
We come on
To find a way
We come on
To have our say

People need validation
Because life’s full
Of confusion
People need to
To talk to someone
People need
A shoulder to lean on

We come on
To help you out
We come on
To jest about
We come on
To make your day
We come on
Just to play

People need to articulate
To discuss fact or fate
People need to socialize
We need answers
To our why’s

We still come on
everyday
To see what others
have to say
We still come on
To criticize
We still come on
To tell our lies
We still come on.
