There are things we do or experience in life that seem to fit with our psyche, they just feel comfortable and natural to us. I have always drawn, filled notebooks with Army
men and monsters from Mars, I was the kid in class that everyone would ask,
“Can you draw me a...”. I still remember, like it was yesterday the first real paintings
I saw in a Museum. They blew my mind, and yet somehow I knew I had to figure
out how in the world they did it. And later, the first time I pushed a puddle
of oil paint around on a palette, I knew, oh yeah…this is it.
Joseph Campbell wrote, “If you do follow your bliss you put
yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you,
and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Follow your
bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were
going to be.”
