I recently found this interesting page www.kerismith.com/ask.html
The title refers to artists, but I feel it can be applied to every human being situation...

1.Constantly compare yourself to other artists (to other human beings)
2.Talk to your family about what you do and expect them to cheer you on (expect your family to understand)
3.Base the success of your entire career on one project (be singleminded)
4.Stick with what you know (stick with your habits)
5.Undervalue your expertise (undervalue yourself)
6.Let money dictate what you do (let approval of others dictate it)
7.bow to societal pressures (exactly the same)
8.Only do work that your family will love (set the approval as your achievement)
9.Do whatever the client/customer/gallery owner/patron/investor asks (don't have the courage of your own ideas, let the other's power lead you)
10.Set unachievablr/overwhelming goals. To be accomplished by tomorrow (Don't recognize and accept your own limits)

Can't we do anything together? We're a pretty big community after all...is it possible for example to create a group and to donate the art produced in that group in order to get money for the people in Haiti? Or to dedicate a 20% or something like that of all the money we get from our DA paints? Or maybe create a special edition DA T-shirt ore something else, so people here can buy it and the money, or part of it if it's not possible all of it could be donated?
I mean, now it's Haiti, tomorrow it can be somewhere else, I think we can do something.

3 min read
Sooo here we are, I've reached the 100th deviation...don't know if it's a good thing honestly, 'cause I see a lot of incredible artists here who don't need so much deviations to be such great artist and I'm no great at all :-S...anyway here I am.

Happy Christmas

3 min read
So here we are again. Merry Christmas, messages mails postcards and so on and on. So mmmh that is really meaningless as far as I'm concerned, but.
Stop, listen. The snow has nothing to say but it's there anyway. So what, happy Christmas people, even if we have nothing to say we're worth a wish.

I'm back from Germany and back from a Linux Eeepc that didn't allow me to post things online it seems...I'm not sure what "back" means anyway...I don't feel like being back somewhere familiar.

Ps: this Journal skin for free thing is amazing.
