RE: An Important Message From The Messenger About How Sometimes Shutting Up Is A Good Thing
Well said. Any writing at all takes an immense amount of time, if you don't want to just toss something out. And adding images, WITHOUT self created works, such as yours, adds a whole lot more time. Paticularly if you actually care what the end result is. I've been known to spend a whole day or two on a post. Particularly if there is a lot of writing//editing. Not all the time, but it happens. Which means not putting out as MANY posts. And other times, a short write just comes out to the page rather quickly. But it's all SOME sort of art, in my world of thought.
Always have enjoyed your works, and the added writing and sharp wit really adds a whole dimension to it all. I guess artists just have to develop a thick skin about it all. Though it's hard, when you put a lot of yourself into something. But I suppose, as you say, the bottom line...like it or don't. Not much the artist can do, but keep putting it out. Keep on keepin' on.
Just imagine though, for a second, someone walking into an art gallery and calling the owner lazy for putting art in the window. That's crazy! Nobody does that! ...and that's all this really boils down to.
Never thought about it that way, but so true. And as you say, wouldn't even think about doing that. Express you don't like it maybe, if that's the case, but calling someone who put it all out there, and a lot of their soul into their art, lazy? Downright dumb.
