It
has to be one of my all time favorite Van Halen tunes... When I'm dancing
at my drafting table, pencil in hand, twirling the straight-edge over the
paper, I think, yeah, to me, this is love. Even if I don't have the
tune playing, somehow it creeps into my head when I touch brush, or pencil
or pen to the canvas, fabric or paper. Not far behind
is that burst of electrical energy that runs through my
entire body. It's like that magical first kiss when you know the
person you're with is one with you, you're so very right with each other,
for each other. I know that at that moment, I'm so very right with
my art. It is my reason for being. For an artist, that feeling is
true love. It may be difficult for a non-artist to understand the
passion we artists feel when creating a piece of art, but it is my belief
that you will only get out of your work what you put into it, and eventually
others will too.
