in one of those moods again.
like everything around me is overrated.
lately people have been calling me an artist,
they call me a photographer, ask if im a painter, assume i write poetry and ask do i make my own clothing..
they, however never label me as the most innovative of them all, human
today i told someone i don't claim to be anything..their response with a smile "not even human"
my reaction..."*thinking face..no only human."
see when you claim to be human you claim to be anything you want, and when you embrace this nothing is impossible. when you claim to be human you claim to be a creator,therefore saying "i am an artist."
and i dont mean you have to dance,draw , or even play the kazoo
i just mean as human we all initially have different perspectives,and ways of looking at things. this in itself is innovation. and when these thoughts are put into action, it becomes creation, which in turn becomes art.
so when one is brave enough to embrace their human spirit, and own ideas,whatever they may be, they automatically can be deemed as an artist.
so forgive me if i don't seem impressed by any"artsy"thing i do
because if someone were to ask me "when did you become an artist?"
my first response would be "when did you stop?"
this by far is impeccable.
