I have to apologize for neglecting this project for as long as I did. Life took turns and I became overwhelmed. It is a long story, and I wish to not get into it on a public scale such at a website. If you would like to know, feel free to e-mail me and I may share the story.
I found when I took drawing out of my life for as long as I did, I lost a bit of myself. Drawing is something that has been a part of me for a long time, more than my music has been. I have been drawing and expressing myself for as long as I can remember. My mother always encouraged me to get involved in the arts and I feel it has helped shape the man I have become now. Taking that away from myself was like loosing my voice. I could no longer express myself the way I wanted to. I have never been someone good with words ( my grades in my English Classes can prove that ;) ), and the arts, be it music or visual, have always been my voice. I felt like I could no longer communicate with the world as I have done before when I stopped drawing.
But, I have healed. I have rediscovered my voice again, in both my art and my music.
I plan on taking this project to a new level. I want it to become my release from the stress I have. And, to start it out, I am going to tell a story very personal to me. I am going to tell of how I felt like I had to take music out of my life. During my time at college, studying to become a music educator, there came a time where I was ready to throw it all away and pick up a new field. I became dead inside from school. I forgot what it was that I was working for. But, I found it later that year, and since then, I knew that the field of music is what I needed to be in.
I'm not going to commit to a schedule with this. Its going to come about on its own. But, starting in 2008, it will be here. So, please, sit back and enjoy the ride.
