| The Artist Speaks! |

![]() ![]() ![]() Welcome to my BLOG, I do enjoy writing, and as you will notice, the rambling style fits me well. ( Art guy, remember?) JULY Edition: It's my Birthday!
Since we last met our Hero... My smart phone has replaced the house phones, I have joined a new arts group, The Chesapeake Bay Arts Association, I have gone to a weekend art show at a nudist camp, ( and decided I reallly liked it! ), had my computer die... which is why all of this has taken so long. Was given a laptop, rebuilt it, and still have to get my data (tons of it) from the other hard drive. I had my home life scramble itself, then act like nothing happened, and have had some great parties, met some great people, (including you Marcy!) (Drew Carey's loss is Norfolk's gain) I still haven't sold any big art, but I finally got my digital camera I wanted! BUY SOME BIG ART! ....... In my early years, I was discussing my desire to become a great artist with my mother. (This was, of course, lonnnnng after being dropped on my head.) She was quick to let me know that being an artist was no way to make a living. What I was up against, she said, was a million-to-one chance that I would ever be recognized for what I produce as an artist, and then for most, the recognition happens after they have died. I think she was right after all. Here I am now, Fifty one years old, my walls full of paintings, drawers and cabinets full of supplies, and I am still working for someone else... as an artist, but NOT exactly living large by any means. I thought the internet, with an international audience would change all of that. OH Well. Love ya MOM! It's JULY! ... and I'm 51 (till the 18th!) We continue on..... storage fees continue on. A million to one doesn't really sound so bad, does it? It's part of what makes us artists, being short on attention span, and, hoping someone else's attention will balance the deficit. [-.-.-.-.-.-.-] Go on and buy some art now, it will make you feel SO much better! Is this red font about the brightest thing you've seen? I wish I had been able to enjoy all of this technology, including digital monitors, back in my acid days. The entire ART world would have taken an entirely different direction. >-:-:-:-:-:-:-< -.-.-.-.-.-.- Success is a Lottery, You must play to win. ------- I am looking for a gallery in a major metropolitan area (One that buys ART!) to place some of my works in, so if anyone knows of a gallery that would be a good fit for me, just let me know or send them my site link. Thanks. Run down to the Email link on the bottom of the page, and let me know what you think about my art, and tell me what I can do to get you to purchase some of it. If you are already convinced that YOU MUST HAVE THEM ALL!, Take a look at "The BIG Play" - Further down the page!
If you must force or manipulate others to see the way to heaven, it is not the right path. Show them the way by example of how you live your life, in peace and with pleasure, and how you are rewarded by your achievements. bs If you are reading this, and you know of anyone who is interested in art, please send them to buy a painting, poster, whatever. Thank You.- BS

This site, and it's contents, are currently being produced with the use of Windows XPpro, Windows Internet Explorer 7, and Notepad. I am running a 20" digital LCD widescreen monitor. (Thanks to summer overtime, not Art supporters) The rest of the system is crap, except for some of my highly valued, yet inexpensive graphics programs. I LOVE DOING ALL OF THIS! - I just wish it would pay for itself more often. |
