'..i see art in every single aspect of life. life is art, art is life. i can't look at a piece of discarded trash on the ground and not think of art. i can't look at a grocery store shelf filled with wonderful, vibrant colored packages, and not think of art. i can't look at a passing car, with chipping paint, weathered bumper stickers and rusty hubcaps, and not think of art. it's everywhere and everything..'

Comments
Thanks for the comment in my journal. I still am thinking about what to do.
and precisely, it feels like a curse sometimes..i feel like i've got ADD, there's just so much information bombarding me creatively. but, then, that's what living in the here and now is all about. i can't imagine living any other way. i think the thing that distresses me more than anything else, is figuring out a way to channel these impulses so that people can interpret and digest what i place before them. much like you're trying to enlighten people to recognize and embrace their everyday language in a new and different light. i like the phrase 'heightened awareness.' not only because it makes me seem more intelligent ;-) but it's really a perfect description of the type of zen that occurs only when you surrender your linear mind to more abstract thought.
i'm SO GLAD WE MET! have i only mentioned that a kabillion times????
and i am SO looking forward to your creative evolution..whatever it may be.
you really are an inspiration to me.

i can tell you're so in tune with your surroundings, by your intuitive, playful compositions and the subjects you choose. you can't see, but i'm starting to get the shakes..i need to see more 'pergy' collages! ;-)
haha :) really? but i adore your art. i'm thinking maybe next time i'll be more adventurous and try something 3 dimensional.

but then again i think alot of artists that are passionate about their work would feel ya!! *grin* well the ones that eat! sleep! breath! LIVE!!! their *ArT*!!! *wink*
i can't help it! *grin* it's just a BIG part of who i am!!!
i pick up every little thing when i'm out and about!!! i have a box in my studio that sits on my shelf that says *found objects* on it real BIG!!!! and when i get home each day i toss what ever little treasures that i found in it!! i even have my hubby traded to pick me stuff up!!! *grin* he'll say i thought maybe you could use this in your *aRt*!!!! *grin*
i just ♥ ya gal!!!
you just keep *Be*ing you!!!!

♥ ~t!
i've gotten the BEST stuff from my boyfriend! now he picks up as much junk as me..i doubled my inventory! yea!
i wish i could stuff my finds into ONE box. you must be really REALLY organized. mine looks more like a heap of debris leftover from some long ago earthquake ;-)
i try to be organized!!! be it's tuff!! when my box gets full! i go through it and put it into zip lock bags!! so i can see what all i have!! but just like right now!! my poor box is over flowing!! *grin* i need to organize AGAIN!!! *wink*
x0x ~t!
ah..so true!
i guess i was 'feeling' art outside of the traditional gallery/museum walls. the idea that art/beauty/awareness/sensory stimulation..whatever label you want to place on art and what it means to you..is with us everywhere. no need to pay admission, ya know? it's just a way of looking at the world in a new perspective. adults skipping in public, being a good example ;-)
