Pre-Game Blog for Game 2
I don't mind being an old man in a room, making art in a dusty studio. Rembrandt and Degas were two men who did that. I like the idea. I do it every day.
I have to find a way to pay for my existence, though.
So, I will go to the World Series, and do my vending thing, watch the game, and have a good time.
Vending at the ballpark hasn't been exactly lucrative for me. It just helps me to get by, so I can make my art.
Watching documentaries about my favorite artists is incredible for me. Youtube is such an invaluable resource in that way. I feel so lucky to be able to watch a show about Warhol, Dali, Degas, or Rembrandt any time I want.
It is the 'wow factor' for me.
Anyway, I have to leave to go to Game 2 in about twenty-three minutes.
I do appreciate anyone who comes upon this blog and reads it. Comments are always welcome.
In time, I want to provide a real service here, where I can write about what it is to be an artist in San Francisco, at the beginning of the 21st Century. I hope that I can find the words to describe what it is I am seeing, and to identify the currents of human activity. Ultimately, I seek for meaning, but I know deep down inside, that sometimes, there is none.
Go Giants.
