But some great records are are being made with today's technology and there are still great artists among us. Likewise there are artists today who are so reliant on modern technology, they wouldn't have emerged when recording was more organic.

Bestowers Of Transformative Vision

pathos suffering passion
ripe within bodily experience
pathos of culture artistic expression

artists the 'I give birth to'
shape shifters people creators
bestowers of transformative vision

sentence seen is life vibration alteration
passionate in artistic creation expression
enrichers of web strand seekers beholders

artists hung upon vision quests
artists hung upon life beat heart beats
artists hung upon eyes burning in soul flame

artists historical now you see them now you don’t

A lot of artists are much more concerned about how their work is used and how it's disseminated. That, to artists, is as important as the money, for some people.

People Choose To Lay Up On Their Backsides

'I have suffered this.
I have suffered that.'

'I have suffered this.
And,
I suffer from that.'

Hear them talk about their pains,
And those agonies they reveal.

'I have suffered this.
I have suffered that.'

And...
Listen how they boast about,
Reasons why they choose NOT to heal.

'I have suffered this.
And,
I suffer from that.'

People like to stay flat on their back-
Sides!
People like to moan and that's a fact.

People like to stay flat on their back-
Sides!
People like to feel that keep it real...
To suffer!

'I have suffered this.
I have suffered that.'

'I have suffered this.
And,
I suffer from that.'

'I have suffered this.
I have suffered that.'

'I have suffered this.
And,
I suffer from that.'
And...
People choose to lay up on their backsides!
Listen to their reasons NOT to heal!

'I have suffered this.
I have suffered that.
I have suffered this.
And...
I suffer from that.'

People choose to lay up on their backsides!

The Southern Baptist Church is a specific culture in itself. So, I had to study, talk to people, watch tape and go to performances to see how Gospel artists move compared to secular artists.

Artists can color the sky red because they know it's blue. Those of us who aren't artists must color things the way they really are or people might think we're stupid.

Great artists are people who find the way to be themselves in their art. Any sort of pretension induces mediocrity in art and life alike.

For hundreds of years people have talked about artists having inspiration, but often, some persons would say, write us a symphony or write us a song, on commission. The artists would come up with a masterpiece without waiting to have their muse inspire them.

I just sit at the drawing board most of the time. I am used to talking to people. I love going to conventions, getting feedback and talking to people. Some artists don't. Some artists sit at their drawing board because their personality actually dictates that.

John Steinbeck

I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

People In the City

… people eat junk food and curry
because they are always in a hurry

… people collide into each other
without saying sorry

… people talk on mobile phones
in high pitch tones

… people hardly ever smile
because they are paranoid or shy

… people suffer from obesity
because they drive everywhere

… people inhale polluted air
because of fumes in the atmosphere

… people litter the streets
because the penalty fines are too cheap

… people commit crimes in the streets
because there aren’t enough cops on the beat

… people are always late
because the railway tracks are out of date

… people live on credit
because they pay bills by direct debit

… people are unable to relax
because they pay high income tax

… people suffer from stress
because they never rest

Above all, we must have great respect for these people who also suffer and who want to find their own way of correct living. On the other hand, to create a legal form of a kind of homosexual marriage, in reality, does not help these people.

I Suffer The Night

I suffer the night
When it's time to face my sadness
And all I can do is cry

I suffer the night
When I struggle to find rest
Knowing in the morning I must rise

I suffer the night
When alone in the darkness
I wonder why I am alive

I suffer the night
When I succumb to blackness
And finally stop asking why

I suffer the night
As it battles my mind
And my spirit slowly dying

I suffer the night
As I reach for the light
And pray that my death be kind

It feels like my job is to support people. I support great artists. When I worked with a symphony, I sat in the third chair, not the first chair.
