"What more could I say, I wouldn't be here today, if the old school didn't pave the way"

To be an artist I feel I need to express every inch of feeling and creative thought, no matter positive or negative. What I have in common with everyone in this world is I share "time." I believe that reciprocity through time is a great example of karma. Believing in one self also plays a crucial part of finding one self in the society one must play a role in. As an artist in the contemporary art world, I feel that I should record every single thought because this is what goes through peoples minds in the era I exist in with whatever tool I could get my hands on. I also feel that as an artist, I am not a normal person. Being an artist is to confront conflict and to endure struggle but embracing the negativity into beauty and positive vibes and speaking loud as possible about it. I have learned so much with art. I learned how to connect with people, how to balance my emotions and make positive decisions. I learned how to speak clearly about concepts and backing up my thoughts. I am programed to solve problems creatively. I have learned how to create and teach peace within a community and teach people to share. I learned how to stand straight and hold my head up. I learned how to deal with tough obstacles in life. I learned how to survive mentally and physically. How to be organized, and well thought out. And lastly, I learned to let go of ego or who I think I am and accept my being and let go to fit into this world. I love to do art and surround myself with art. I feel my whole life my inner circle in my family does not understand how much I want to make a difference in this world. It takes a lot for somebody to understand art, but to understand art one must let go of thinking and see what you truly see. To truly see something is to follow your heart and know what is right to you. As an artist it is my job to make the world a much more beautiful place in order for people to want to keep surviving. To create the world in a whole new perspective. I don't believe that we have done everything yet, because the mind will always prevail to come up with infinite ideas. Therefore I must keep creating, I must keep expressing and making mistakes. I must record history in order for me to exist and to love every minute of life.
