Random thoughts while doing some homework.

It's recently occurred to me (or rather, recurred) that I'm not sure what the point to art is. This is highly problematic since I am a self proclaimed "artist." (Whatever that means.)

Before being chased by 50 or so monkeys, a dear friend of mine introduced me to the concept of a magic dictionary. I asked my magic dictionary what the point of Art (and life) is. My finger landed on the word renascent.

re·nas·cent [ri-nas-uhnt, -ney-suhnt]
being reborn; springing again into being or vigor

While reading my art history homework I came across the following quote:

Through colour I feel a total identification with space. I am truly free... and my pictures represent an idea of absolute unity in perfect serenity.
-Yves Klien


I have no idea why I photograph the way that I do.

You want to know why you photograph the way you do? I will consult the magic thesarus. You can thank your monkey friend and yourself for that idea.

The word is
Maritime

You must have been a sailor in another life. Or a squid.

Now that I have given you amazing insight, when are we hanging out?
