Blog: Today will change how I think

Today will change how I think about the past. Today will change how I move forward towards the future.  But today is today and I will love and live it fully and not be worried about change, because change happens.  I learn from it, I grow from it, I change because of it.  I learned this simple mantra as an artist a long time ago working on artwork and letting it become and change instantaneously before me. 

I learned not to be afraid to be different and to change. Oh, I don’t mean different as in what someone might label me, but different in the sense of being my authentic unique self.  Art is that way, never defined, always changing. The only label it carries is the word “art.”
