Connections to the Heartland

There is, in art, as in life, a cadence, a rhythm, a thread of universality that runs through each and every one of us. Few are those who can express it in such a way as to strike a chordal response within those few who can't... hence, the difference between artists and critics.

And, as it has been observed, we children of Sol, have managed to find our own way here sans character sets and/or operating instructions... so too, have my "children" arrived. Some few will understand... most won't.

I do not throw paint at the canvas of life, nor do I write down to others, nor myself. I do not feel I have to... I've lived my entire life keeping my own counsel, while paying whatever price I've had to for my own mistakes... and with my own sweat...

So should we all.
