There are a great many artists. One who seeks art, as with most things created, will find it. As
Though explanations, as funny situations, defy explanation, our past is!..Today as I watch, listen I create..hoping always to put good in tomorrow..
with most things it is a road as long and serious as life itself if followed in honor and truth. Today I watched a video on U-tube about a fellow who opens his display with a question.. ‘Where is the hidden artist?’ His answer involved view of angle. His art I find of special interest.
Using parts of ads he ‘creates’ a commercial display and camouflaged, a person or object is immersed in the display scene. I cannot think of a more fitting social description of those lost in wants of advertising seen.. and so on.
I am a second generation American. I know from wanting things and money. My studies have shown me that this ultimately will never work. Reason? Folks do things for money that go against their primal nature. When they do this they do not lose their soul.. in my belief.. but they damn sure make it harder to find..
My second artistic journey is the popular 2005.. 4 book saga by Stephanie Meyer about werewolves and vampires. I like this kind of thing. It is an escape from the true horrors of this world. In a momentary aside.. one of the werewolf legends came about very logically and sensibly.. during the great plagues that took towns, countries and on one occasion a third of the worlds populace.. left people. Some of them became hungry, naked and unprepared. Some followed the wolf packs and ate their scraps,
On to the books. I found the first book.. ‘Twilight’ fun.. I did realize it was geared to a younger audience. I found myself wishing at times Ms. Meyer would not have her characters rolling their eyes so much. I further found it easy to predict.. I am reading ‘Eclipse’ now.. the second of four.. and am finding myself poring over predictable situations with no change here except a realized boredom.
On the bright side the book is well received. ‘USA Today’ said ‘Piles on the suspense and romance.’ At this point I would have stopped with ‘piles’. If you enjoy light reading and have a ‘comfort zone’ in reading this is a fun book. It does portray ‘honor’ as desirable, that is a plus in my read. The emotions of a 16-year-old werewolf and a ’17-year-old’ vampire are done in excellent taste and bearing. The concept of family and how important it is comes throughout my present reads of this work.
Ms. Meyers has a website under her name.. the saga in four books made #1 in sales. That alone has to be wonderful. I predict Ms. Meyers, as with many other inventive, imaginative writers of grit and determination will expand her horizons.
Personally.. I look forward to her artistic endeavors. Peace T.
