It is Good

I’ve spent decades telling myself that I am a wannabe. It could take decades for me to reverse the damage by behaving as though I am a real artist. How does a real artist behave? A real artist produces art. I’ve been producing art for several years now. I have four poetry books compiled and self-published on Amazon. I’ve taken incredible photos. I’ve drawn amazing pictures, pictures I look at and still can hardly believe I drew it. I’ve painted paintings. I might not be too thrilled about any of the paintings I’ve completed as of yet, but I have completed them. I am an artist. I write. I dance. I draw. I sing. I allow the creative voice of Spirit to speak through my voice, to impact the world in fresh and new ways through my hands. It would be nice if I could look at everything I create and say, “It is good,” but I’m not God. I’m going to make a lot of mediocre stuff. I’m going to make crap, fire fodder, recycling. The point is that I make. I am an artist, and every time I allow my artistry to flow through me, even if the final product is ridiculous, the process is pure delight.
