finished, I think

I was hoping to finish these today but

I've reached the

I don't want to change them

stage

so

tomorrow

Stuck in my head

Never Gonna Let You Go

I didn't show you the 9"x12" series update

maybe it goes this way now

still in progress

Possibly ruined

I'm not sure what I'm doing counts as fine art

it's maybe too

Decorative

hmmmm

possibly finished

BOOSTED 

ALSO

Do you think this is finished?

I can think of more stuff I could do to it

but I don't think it makes it better

I'm thinking of calling it

ALICE?

Lucy texted me on Saturday

telling me that I needed to email Vikki

my picture and artist statement

it hadn't occurred to me that I was doing that

I spent all weekend subsequently

giving it some thought

AND

I don't think my conclusions will be popular

I COULD put

I was born in Houston

My parents were artists

I attended HSPVA

Was a painting major for a while at UH

That's not much of a resume

So what my artist statement needs to be

IS A STATEMENT

Something that makes people connect

Want to see what I've produced

I understand that people often

Connect with the art 

Or Whatever

Because of a mystique

They FEEL something for the mystique

and THAT leads them to the work

I'm NOT READY to make a STATEMENT

I'm still figuring out this process

Style

Genre

Whatever

It's gonna HAVE to speak for itself

Because I'm not ready to tell you WHY you love it YET

AND

I'm not ready to tell anything about ME

Is that CRAZY?

DM always makes me think of my dad

That song

is so core to me though

your painting

Stronger 

your piano is deeper somehow
