In order to replicate and regenerate a proven concept, there first must be an original idea. A source. A recipe. A thorough scheme conceived to deliver exact results time after time. Such an idea must be complex enough to encompass the capacity of a diverse multi-purpose population. Yet, simple and plain enough to explain to an inquisitive child. A plan of pure potential and productive purpose. It does exist.
Which leads me right to the reason this blog exists. Purpose. Process. Product. A behind the scenes view of bringing a concept from conception to completion. A complete studio build out of what goes into the making of the "dishes" that go out to the "Metal Art Buffet." This blog is the "test kitchen", where concepts and ideas are thought through and fleshed out. The following build is the foundation of what this body of work is all about.
KNOW YOUR SELF.
KNOW that a great spirit/energy lies within you
KNOW where you are on this plane at all times
KNOW what happened before your arrival onto this plane
KNOW who was involved
KNOW that tomorrow's reality begins with today's vision
KNOW that love is at the core of your being
KNOW that the mirror reveals all to be examined
KNOWING your SELF guarantees you'll always be true to your SELF
FIND YOUR GIFT.
FIND a passion that makes you lose track of time
FIND people who support your passion
FIND a place to practice and polish your gift
FIND power in your passion
FIND peace in your passion
FIND the purpose for your mission here
FIND the tools needed to embark on that mission
GIVE MORE.
GIVING IS LIVING
GIVE MORE random acts of kindness
GIVE MORE attention to your health, wealth and wisdom
GIVE yourself to something that's larger than your SELF
GIVE freely of your time, talents and resources
GIVE your gift to the world
LIVE MORE.
LIVING IS GIVING
LIVE MORE through those whose lives your gift has touched
LIVE MORE through the works created and left to be absorbed by those that need it
LIVE MORE through an "open hands" existence (open to let energy flow through)
LIVE MORE by knowing that, "when you go, you can't take it with you" (as told to me by my mama)
