Heady stuff indeed, and thanks for sharing that my friend! Wise words, even if he was a bit off his bean in other areas; but I also put forth, what Artist worth his/her salt is not a bit off their bean!

In art school, I think I was rather fortunate in putting two and two together so quickly with the realization that it was I who was the audience and judge...and it wasn't actually all that quick, I suppose, as it was clear into my second year before I allowed the term/moniker "Artist" to even be considered for use in referencing me. Devotion and dedication to any worthwhile task makes us all Artists, and indeed, kindred spirits. Here's to the Artist in all of us mates!
