i kiss your feet + apologize, but —
i’m seeing businesses on line, in brick & mortar shops, in boxes; offering the commodity of creative. Selling being taught the craft of being creative. Costing + tricking people into being creative. It’s yummy time - get those creatives juices flowing = GROSS! Creating is something you do, not something you are. i get that it’s a tribe. i get that some people need to be pushed into a directive. i get that some people may be busting numbers around all day, dreaming of being artistic. But, numbers + paper-work sound like a break to me! i'm looking for ways to get out of being creative.
Actually that will be my next gimmick.
Ask me for an uncreative solution;
Break it completely + throw it away.
Whoa, did i just write that out loud?
Working for, working with, working through — it's all the same energy.
Just sometimes someone is looking + paying, sometime not.
If i ever felt like i didn’t have a purpose … i would need to work harder. Or, i should have chosen something i imagine to have more purpose.
We all chose what we do, and we pay for it … David Walker said something like, years ago as he calmly philosophized + drew beautiful illustrations via designing costumes in the opera shop corner — while i ferociously wrestled a hat into submission.
I get you. The reduction of the creative urge to product.
