The Arts: whats happening!
January 31st, 2025
I wonder what this will lead up to. For one, I know this will be up for eternity. Me and Evan will never not be friends, or as the poets say “Till Death Do Us Part”. We need to find our footing, find the passion that’s hidden behind all the bushes of ideas we have. Me and him have that in common, we want to be able to experience every facet of art we possibly can. We used to sit and talk about starting a band or making music as a rap duo back in high school. Earlier last year, we discussed drawing, Evan had a unique style of drawing I really liked. Now days it’s either a band or a movie, The blog is up for us to be able to talk about every detour we take. A movie will always be on the horizons for me though. That is my dream, to make a film.
Hopefully the blog inspires us to make more. I have a constant fear of not being able to catch up with my vision. Or worst of all, that my self doubt will blind my eye of beauty. There are only a few things in this world that truly keep me from making something worth while. Love and passion. My love for people, and my passion to show them off. I guess a reminder to myself is that as long as I love, as long as I feel that passion, I can still make my art worth something.
Loveless art, and passionless art, is ugly. I believed that since I was but a whee lad. Art is a representation of a living soul. It is not meant to be taken lightly or created for a purpose other than to show humanity. Capitalism is truly the mark of death of artistic expression. You don’t make something to make anymore, you make it to capitalize on, to earn something materialistic from. You can’t bring up paintings and books and movies and music up without someone asking what your yearly income is. Even I hope for a successful career, a stable income or more off the movies I direct and write. Yes of course I want to write something groundbreaking and meaningful, something that encapsulates the world I see, the love I hold, the life in me. But money si what everyone says is of importance. A shame really. True and raw art has been replaced by ugly monkeys that cost millions just to own a digital copy of.
Art used to mean something important, it used to represent people. And so much of it still does, but is easily brushed off for being pretentious or overly complex. All for a dollar
On another, more personal and lighter note. I have been out and about. Going on dates with someone! I was taking some time off the dating scene, people are my biggest fear, but I felt something calling to me. The sweet warmth that we call connection. I found someone in the tangled up wires of life and I held her hand. What a beautiful thing. The Sacaranian army will receive more updates but I will leave it at that. I hope you sweet souls find someone to dance with, and if you can’t dance, Sing.
