Awakening take 2

Ok, my welcome post....i have to admit...was shit. Amidst the going through of setting up the blog, there was so many things to say and attempts at formulating an interesting group of words to gain interest, culminated into a rushed piece of....you know...chit. :)

So here we go. Blog welcome, So yeah, Take 2.

 Each day i wake, i get my self into a state of gratitude before i get out of bed between 7 and 8:30. As my love misses my sounding board to help organize the day. I've practiced myself into happiness in this life without her. It's now been one year last August 8th since Pancreatic Cancer has changed her into an angel and i find myself still limping from the blast of hearing the diagnosis and everything that followed. Her passing 3 months later to what to do in my new life without her.
"She would have wanted you to keep going" is the main theme that helps me to keep doing so.
So I paint, as it is my chosen path.
Whenever such a shift in comfort gets thrown at us it seems a seeking of spiritualism takes precedence in a struggle to understand and maybe even fulfill hopes of "seeing" the lost loved one again someday.
Yes, i have come to an understanding and level of faith that there is one God.

"First Step-Step To"

Read into your trip....but believe your gut for the greater good. So many paths to follow and where to step? Taking that first step leads to you another....Seek laughter, grow your gratitude, let your actions of forward movement define you. Your will is all you have total control over. Entertain the lightness in a constant state of forgiveness because your dream is completely different than another.



Like two people reading or seeing the same thing might have different definitions, opinions and interpretations, simplification seems to be a road for every seeker. We may complicate ourselves into the word overwhelmed or we can shed negativity with laughter. (with others- is usually more fun.)


I wake every morning with a prayer for the farthest person out there. Then work slowly back to those closest to me, then me....Some say be happy and do things to make yourself happy before you can share any happy. Through my dream and life, the addition of those true words, bringing happiness to others has given me the greatest happiness. A multiplication of acts of random kindness without perpetuation of negative thought. I suppose...

Ok, time for Coffee.....

Aloha! and Dakine, if not Now, When?....Now. ok now then.

Ok
This Blog is dedicated to my Beautiful Love Deborah Cook Persson, who saved my life and gave me years of hers, here. I shall always miss you and be grateful to you. my Love. My Porkchop......

So Yeah. Hi! new Blog!.....So much to say and share. Dare to start here. Now.
My agent and good friend Jay Celat had come up with the idea to let you guys in on the creative process of a Mid-career Artist....Artist.

Through long talks with very cool friends and supporters, it's time. Beginning with a 36x48 canvas that i have been working up to with smaller 11x14 studies. I'll attempt to give you a candid look into my studio and share the journey which is process which is movement which leads to.....hopefully good Art.

A Short List of Tools that comprise my StudioBrain.
1) Music is the living room of my Studiobrain as it his many areas of the mind at once, and is attached to my hands that help create. Pandora does well....from Classical to Rock to Funk to Island Grooves, its all to move the heart and soul and all you thought you knew.
2) Air is good because breathing is best while being alive. Coffee (in small doses) doesn't hurt either. While i'm at it, Food, Sleep, and exercise helps too...This is where Surfing in Hawaii will be included.
3) Laughter... less than continuous, at least one from the belly a day should suffice.
4) Wine.
5) Friends. They are essential to #3 and whether with benefits or not, they help you see yourself without delusions. (at least the real ones.)
6) A Muse. Again, in a future post i will introduce a real life Muse named "Kindness".
7) Yes, a Facebook. Do you book your face or Face your book? It's a essential tool for an artist to get thier work out in the world. It's also a great way to see the world on a personally shared level. Way better way to hear News as only the most important stuff filters through. Like or not to Like. With a full friends list, just don't keep poking me and expect me to poke back.
8) O yeah, Paint and Brushes and stuff..... and thingys to make scuplture....need that too.
If anyone might have any suggestions as to what else my studio needs, please keep it to yourself...or leave a comment, nicely.

So yeah, a Blog begun. (are you ready? and hows this tag list?) Love, Drugs, Sex, Rock-n-Roll, Life, Death, Humor, Surfing, Hawaii, Art, Positivity, & how it may parallel and affect our life through second-nature-cognition, Now, Let's have some FreakinFun....

Hey, I now save up for now and not to ramble on and hopefully you'll come back for more.
 so if not Now, When? its Time. Until then, have a look at my website and FB for references....:)
Thank You for your Time.
See you soon,
Sea-T
