The Creativity Continues


As a creative artist...with that being the most important aspect of what you do...you
know...that no one can stop you from creating. That is entirely up to you...and the
time you can make for it in your life...and your focus...and dedication. You are fortunate...if you can also perform...what you create. In addition to the obvious
difference...between creating and performing...there is another...that you inevitably
...run into. No one can stop you creating...except yourself...but when it comes to
performing...there are any number of blocks...that can stand in the way of your being
able to perform in public. People other than yourself...control...concert...tv...
radio...and any other public performance venues. To perform in these venues...you
are often called upon...to suck up to the venue controllers. For me...reaching towards
the stars...[the ones in the skies]...never harmonized with...jumping through hoops...
or schmoozing...so such practises...to all intents and purposes...remained absent
from my "artist's repertoire". Somehow...I was able to contiue creating...and still
be asked to perform...with the number of performance venues...probably reduced...for
someone not good at jumping through hoops. It was with delight...about two years ago
...I grasped...that putting performances...of some of my created work...on video and
having them on YouTube...would...for me anyway...leave hoops and blocks behind. For this I am extremely thankful...and I'm happy to report...the creativity continues...................Quester.
