The Flaws In The Museums And Artists

With many museums, I see many artists unknown and their story either not there or made up. The aspect of the art museums is fact of preserving the art for the next generation. The forgotten stories of the artists makes the art without a guiding foundation. I understand the aspect of a collector in making their own stories with the art, however, I feel without the leading story with the art going down in value.

I have talked to many people who work at the museums. They said the whole description by the art is made up by the curators and the majority doesn't flow with the art. I say there must be a change in the art world. We need to create a better way to record the stories from the artists to go together along in their art. So no matter what generation they are in, their story is preserved for the coming generations

.In having no documentation, I see it as a disrespect to the artist's legacy. The artists spend countless of hours working on and developing the art in which the time will never come back and then having their story not be preserved is an insult to the dedication of creating art for their lifetime. As if you are the artist, in their own shoes. Wouldn't you want what you put so much effort and work into what you have made be respected and preserved beyond your lifetime in celebrating what you have brought to society to enjoy?

The Symbols Of Your Childhood

Art to the average person is seen as foreign. Relating your childhood memories to vehicles, toys, tools to art is a way to connect with some of the greatest times in your life.. It is the nostalgia surrounding what means the most to you. The sentiment of the happiest times and forseeing your future as bright through expression filled experiences. It is a freeing of the mind in all aspects.

Art can represent the life you seek every day and or the perception you have. The art is the extention of each individual style, signature, and expresson they want to bring others into in being apart of. I am here to bridge the gap and invite those with an open mind to embrace the ideas and concepts I bring.

A piece called Blazing Sun is about the power we have within ourselves in letting our light emit from within. The Blazing Sun is so powerful, bright, high energy, and all caputuring in its essence. This piece was purchased for an office by a family member of the guggenheim. I am glad to be a part of this life and all who see the work in the office. He is a great man and will continue be there to create high value.

Use Your Trauma To Help Others Heal

In the perception of looking at many of the people who experienced so much trauma such as mental, physical, and psychological abuse, along with drug and alcohol addiction they choose to make an impact in society. In going through many hard times, it is a choice to turn their life around. If you need help and or a person to listen contact me

.By expressing yourself, it can be used as a therapy. I emersed myself into art to help myself heal along with developing a voice for therapy. At the time, I felt trapped in not being able to express myself. Over the years, I developed the art I do in having a message to others in helping them in where they are. I honestly wouldn't be here if I didn't create art. Since having this purpose in creating art, what I have build over many years, this will outlive my lifespan.  Art is a vehicle to dig deep within our own subconscious. We have experiences from our childhood buried deep. If you have going through situations, it is time to dig deep to ask the question, What memories in the past do I need to address in order to have a fulfilled life from now on.

Help As Many People As You Can

I saw my uncle today.  He has been dealing with health issues along with a surgery. My uncle was complaining about pain. Recently, he went out to eat and had food in which was too greasy. I said to him, If what you have done hasn't worked then cut off the food that causes you pain. Focus on the healing food. He looked so thin like my stepdad. My stepdad was so extremely thin to be unhealthy. My uncles has worked at a fast food place. He gets free food there. I told him I quit eating there because the food made me feel so bad. The neglect over not eating enough nourishing food causes so many health issues due to defiencies over the long term. My father doesn't think he will do anything about it. When I see someone suffering, I want to do my best to help them. At the same time, they have to take ownership of their own self to fix this issues.

Learn to listen to your body. It will tell you by how you feel in the energy, focus, ability to do tasks and think strategically. Eating more plant based is easier on the body since the food is naturally and less energy to digest. In less digestion, we heal faster and have more energy and flexability. I want the best for you and your family. Start thinking about your health and those you love. The positive influence will rub off when they see you feeling so much greater.

Touch People's Live Despite Your Challenges

Today, I was helping in cleaning out my grandparents house. It seems so foreign doing this with 36 years of memories and my mother who grew up there. It is a challenging time when you are used to seeing your grandparents there. You want your grandparents to be there and live a great life in respect. As I was leaving my sister and I had a disagreement. I said It is a waste of time to argue. I have better things to do and have a place to be.

Once I left, there is a man who was stranded and blocking traffic. No one was stopping to help him.  I pulled over and asked, Do you need a push. He said he is out of gas. There was a gas station beside him. I got a gallon of gas with a container so he could get to the next gas station. He was so happy. I didn't want to be repaid since I have been helped many times.  He insisted on repaying him back. What matters is I came in at the right time to help. I wanted him to realize how important it is to be helped. Why not do it since someday you could be the one who is in the same place as him.

Reflection Over The Year

Yesterday, I was looking through a graveyard and thinking about those who were living at one point on who they are. Also with those who loved them in the period of  time they lived in. See yourself as those who have and will pass since we are all mortals. Reflecting on myself being in their place, I say to myself, I have more to work on and live for. I have chosen to take more walks, eat better, drink more water. The junk food doesn't even taste good as it one did. When you realize what you are eating helps you feel better and tastes good you will want to be apart of it. The whole focusing on death is better spent focusing on the little time we have with no guarantee for a certain age.

We have to be and do our best. Even if you haven't made the right choices for years, today is the time to start taking better care of yourself. Since I have changed the way I have treated myself the quality of my life has increased. Who doesn't want more energy, better flexibility, less pain, sharper mind, increased circulation, better sleep. This is your choice every day.

The "Why" You Do What You Do Is Key. Your Purpose.

Bob Ross painted so many paintings. There are so many painters all over the world. The welcoming experience he gave in his show as if you were right there is invaluable. The experience is what pulls you in. The same goes with all of these bands, groups, musicians as such. Decide to stand for a cause you believe in instead of only what you think will sell. Don't base your work on trends since you want longevity to be timeless.

Capturing who you are through what you do and convey this to those who connect with all you represent. With a person such as Michael Jackson, no one could replace him since he offered his own unique expression in his way. Whether being a fan of him or not doesn't affect his strong loyal supporters throughout the career he had. Live performances are where the fans can experience the artists in a personal way in which those who only listen to recordings don't.

Focus on Why you do what you do. Make it your own.

Manage Stress/Have A Better Quality of Life

Today, my mother had a flat tire on the way back to home. She was stressed out. I said at least you were close to home and the vehicle didn't roll over. If you vehicle is top heavy it is more likely to flip. She got home safely after recieving roadside service. I said, You made it safely home and this is what matters most

.Another is my father was 4 1/2 hours late to fix a dryer. I wasn't communicated with despite the situation in the rain. I said, I could have been doing much more after leaving my home. I still was productive all day with not work related until the end half of the day. Setbacks are temporary. Get up early and start new and fresh the next day. Be grateful you have a new opportunity each day you are alive.

Collect And Record What Matters Most To You

When I think about my grandpa a huge part of him is the fact he is a veteran. It means the world to him to serve his country and the discipline he has developed over the decades and growing up on a farm. It is amazing to hear and see his perspective over the 90 years he is still alive. I only want the best for him. My grandpa is a survior no matter what comes his way.

To this with your loved ones and or the symbols in which remind you of the greatest times you have had collect and record in their behalf. You want to savor them and the life time memories both of you have made together. In having these small periods of time to hold on to. know they mean as much to you as you do to them. Bring this light to others you share from your life for those memories to live on.

Who Are You? Ask Yourself.

The whole self image is stuck on the high pedastal of what they think life should be. In actuality, the life we see is all in the mirror and in the mind of honesty to yourself. You are right there. Explore yourself to answer many questions. Through time and experiences your self image will develop.  Spending time by yourself seems as a lonely path yet the still voice will come to you.

Delegate quiet times in order to focus. With all of this busyness it all seems to blur together and time goes so fast. Years go by like a flash. Each day, cherish the opportunity to get to know yourself and serve others. The challenging times tells us who we are by the response given. Be willing to keep an open mind in asking more questions instead of only accepting what you are told. The active mind is one of the best decision you will make.
