I did a painting of my grandson with his guitar as a Christmas gift. He is in a master's program in counseling so his guitar may help it in so many ways. We had a long talk about the gifts of art/music. Gives me hope....
We are here, alright, in the land of gray walls and guardians, the people and what passes as art and literature, as gray as the walls in many cases. But only because we allow it to be so. We have the choice to see beyond, to move beyond. When enough of us do (and we're getting there), the old ways will crumble. Great essay, Clint. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you, Clint, for a boost as we head out to protest this fast moving cyclone. So, no painting for me this morning, which, of course, makes me madder than a wet hen. But sometimes we must forgo pleasure to deal with the business of fascism. What did I just say? How can this be? In my almost 76 years, I could not have dreamed such a nightmare.🙀
Sharing your brilliant thoughts is needed now more than ever.😽👩🎨
There is a movement to remove the hard things in life, such as mastering an instrument like Alex, Geddy and Neil. In this article I described Geddy’s discovery of the Minimoog and how struggling and figuring things out in your own builds so much for you in the long run.
I was so moved by this piece. Thank you for blowing open the door to that little but central part of me that was hiding from the insanity of our time. ❤️
Wonderful....

I can’t post a photo here, so I’ll restack. I was posting a meme earlier today re Rush.
Love the words you put down man. Also love Rush, so I will give it a listen!

Well said. In my studio and with the travelling monks, I find peace. Otherwise I would be screaming.....

Worshipping AI is aimed to destroy that spirit.
