thoughts on being a creative...

Being a creative I'm starting to equate with being an addict…
the first time you create something that stirs the depths of your soul and brings forth a rush of emotion, euphoria, and awe… like that first rush of adrenaline, that intense high that comes from a narcotic, that first intense, mind numbing, blinding orgasm from a sexual encounter you've wanted, needed, desired for soo long. Once you've created a piece of art, you crave the next, you take trips to find those feelings, pushing boundaries of your talent, your mind, and ability. You start to feel you aren't alive until you have your camera, brush, pencil, pen, what ever tool you use, in your hand and you create from your soul. Every creation gives you a high, you feel connected with the world around you, connected to the people around you, then that high falls off… you feel a darkness settle in, that itch in your hands or the back of your neck… you see things in your environment calling, singing, pleading, urging you to create…
and the cycle begins again… like an addict looking for the next high…

I have taken a hiatus from posting here... yes it has been a long time... almost a year it seems. I will be posting more in the coming weeks and cleaning up the portfolio here.
Look forward to seeing more work.

last night I got my first drop in the bucket to publishing my book... a friend of mine generously decided to cough up $30 to give towards the $2000 I am needing to pay for the expense of having a run of my book edited and published...
The book I'm doing is a life study of the public transit system here in Dallas, TX and I've got a solid start with the photos already... just need to add more to round out what I already have accumulated...
