ART and FEAR


Whatever your Art, FEAR is your Mortal Enemy...

Fear of starting...
Fear of rejection...
Fear of failure...

We will never achieve our Artistic ambitions unless we overcome it...overcoming FEAR is achieving FREEDOM.

FREEDOM to CREATE, FREEDOM to EXPRESS, FREEDOM to INSPIRE...

Luck has nothing to do with it.  Luck is intangible, invisible and therefore inconsequential.  You can't make luck.  Luck is hard work and the harder you work the luckier you get.  FREEDOM to EXPRESS is your goal, and the only obstacle to FREEDOM is FEAR.  Attack it, overcome it, destroy it, obliterate it and you will liberate yourself.  Then think BIG, think EPIC...and CREATE.

IT CAN BE DONE. 

My Art is a collaborative one, I've said it before but without the incredible efforts of the extremely talented people I work with - the work stays on the page.  The key here is that once that person is on board - it's not my work - it's theirs - their contribution, their heart and soul...then when mixed with everybody's contribution it beomes ours.  However, once you've explored it, created it, expressed it, achieved it, let it go...it belongs to your audience.  It is the Audience that all Artistic endeavour is created for...don't let them down, don't let yourself down..conquer your fear and be free to EXPRESS and INSPIRE.

Our time here is too short...I ain't got time for fear anymore.  My only fear was of DEATH - and not death itself - no, death without having achieved all I have wanted to achieve...hmm, death...that was a tough one to overcome, so I've decided it's best to worry about that when it happens.  So as I've put that fear to bed I'm gonna EXPRESS...
