so much passion and parts of me go into every piece of art work, jewelry design or creation thing that i do. whether it is a piece of jewelry, artwork poetry or capturing on camera something that moves my insides and just had to snap the photo. My work for the honest time I kept hidden away in journals and just would show a very selected few for it was like slicing open my soul for anyone to see and I just really wasn't too fond of that. It was a hurdle for me just to allow some who did real or see some of my work fearing ridicule or worse horrid comments, but none the less to my surprise I was hugged and was flabbergasted by those whom said "wow I didn't know you could do things like that" .. letting someone inside to see what i had and was now being exposed or read by another Any artist I have to believe feels the same way about his or her art no matter what that art is expressed. One saying that my grand mother used to say that always has stuck with me since my early childhood is
"What is one man's treasure is another man's gold"
I really at the time didn't understand exactly what that meant at the time, but as I grew older i did begin to see and understand such words. The sentimental things that one holds close probably is not another's great find and won't ever be anything more than your own sentimental value for yourself...My lack of experienced but having enough passion to fuel the world probably won't ever be enough to become so great and e known as a great artist, but really that isn't want my heart truly wants anyway. For me...all it takes is one single person to see and feel what is displayed. Something special that speaks directly to them unlike anything else and that is when an artist has been truly blessed. Beauty is in everything we look to and it is just seeing what may just is hiding below the surface and can only be seen when the eyes are truly open and can receive with an open mind~
