"The work of the artist is no light matter. Few have the courage and stamina to see it through. You have to make up your mind to be alone in many ways. We like sympathy and we like to be in company. It is easier than going it alone but alone one gets acquainted with himself, grows up and on, not stopping with the crowd. It costs to do this. If you succeed you may have to pay for it as well as enjoy it all your life. You can do anything you want to do. What is rare is actually wanting to do a specific thing. Wanting it so much you are practically blind to all other things, so that nothing else will satisfy you. There is reason for you to give this statement some of your best thought. You may find that this is just what is the matter with most of the people in the world; that few are really wanting what they think they want and that most people go through their lives without ever doing one whole thing they really want to do."- Robert Henri

Update-

I've been m.i.a these past few weeks and I apologize.  There's been much going on with recent family deaths and finishing up these last days of junior college.  None the less I am transferring /moving to San Francisco this February 2010 to attend the Academy of Arts University.  At the moment I'm here at home behind the big wooden desk and 3 monitors at 1AM busily at work on some new pieces despite the hectic things that have been taking place.  This is an update to let you all know that I'm back on track and feeling great so check back for some new artwork on the way this month.
