What We Saw From the Cheap Seats = concentrated bliss and Miracle-Gro for my creativity.

"I'm just a soul whose intentions are good.
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood."

It's almost good enough to let me delude myself, if only for a moment, that I can get into RISD or another school of that caliber. Of course, for now I'm only 20 credits into an AFA degree at community college (a degree I'm not sure I want/need) and terminally ambivalent about the long-term future. Won't anyone kindly pay me le big bucks to skidge some paint around some canvases for the rest of my life?

One thing is absolutely certain: it is either art or nothing. If I cannot make art, I will surely hollow out like Bartleby, a hunger strike for the inhospitableness of this existence.

I think Regina and I agree that the best approach to anything is usually simplicity.
