A collection of things I create; a collection of things I value; a collection of things that make me feel; a collection of things that I love. I can be whiny and angsty; inspired and profound. I can be whatever you want me to be. Do you know what I mean? I am a visual artist and designer obsessed with passion, art, fashion, lust, knowledge, change, technology, creativity, well-being, loves, physical activity, body modification, science, and all detail. I do not settle.

The worst thing an artist can do is live in a reality driven by others. <br/><br/>I have been waking up all over again. Somewhere between successes, ambition, connection, and work ethic I shifted my perspectives into conventional ones that didn&#8217;t belong to me in any way. This is no post about regret, bitterness, or despair; just a recollection. (Both kinds of recollection, actually.) I think it&#8217;s easy to mistake these conventions as &#8216;modern&#8217; or &#8216;contemporary&#8217;. Social media, television, and peer pressure have incredible hold and smothering for those who are born into art. At least I&#8217;ve found myself lost in it several weeks at a time. (Let&#8217;s clarify this is no speculation on man in modern day. I appreciate digital technology very much and am an avid user myself.) Filtering became more complicated than I have ever experienced before. And the compulsion to make others happy first, had blurred my personal boundaries. I actively identify that the reason why this all happened is pretty irrelevant. I&#8217;m so glad I&#8217;m awake again. </p> <p>They say that artists have a deep capacity for sadness and beauty, which results in their keen eyes that represent realities. They also say that that doesn&#8217;t make sense to anyone on a deep, authentic level unless they are artists. I realized I would be hungry for the rest of my life when I was 7. </p> <p>A large external factor of my present-day restlessness stems from my strong resistance and principles about art and design that are constantly proven valid by a certain community&#8217;s behavior, attitudes, work, and dialogue. This is has been a simple thing to change, though. I have no need or responsibility in associating with it; spring is a great time to clean. I see lost hearts myself; the lack of authenticity that results from it is disgusting and uncomfortable. This distaste has been unexpectedly very useful.</p> <p>I have been waking up all over again. The same way I have become more of a writer like I am a drawer; my professional playground has involved more writing too, along with interactions with people and communities that use verbal expressions. It&#8217;s been nice though, I&#8217;ve always loved poetry dearly. I&#8217;ve always treasured words dearly. </p>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49368800800http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49368800800Wed, 01 May 2013 10:17:07 -0700BlogLifePersonalPerspectiveJournalPostDocumentationArchiveTextWordsMine<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/723f9d30eef17e465772664dc20e2ee4/tumblr_mly3dgcuXv1qm3r26o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://visualgraphc.com/post/49063225125/join-or-die">visualgraphic</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Flag-U-S-Snake--Colonies-Revolutionary/dp/B004IZQIAO/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1364230937&sr=8-4&keywords=join+or+die+flag&tag=vglnk-c1071-20">Join Or Die</a></p> </blockquote>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49264512857http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49264512857Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:22:24 -0700JoinDieSnakeEvilGoodMoralPerspectiveMythStoryLegend<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mefwfrhebL1qd440yo1_400.png"/><br/><br/><p>#Honest #poem on #love </p>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49264456075http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49264456075Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:21:17 -0700QuoteLoveLifeGrowingRelationshipsWritingJournalTypeSecondChance<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/219eb9f1ca44377751aff89bb7cd4b18/tumblr_mm0w7fA9Ih1qc9q52o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A #poem by Mary Oliver in A Thousand Mornings. #Monday #morning #muse</p>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49181742731http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49181742731Mon, 29 Apr 2013 08:26:03 -0700poemmusemondaymorning<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/cf232201643315a83ed7773ec7a4e4e9/tumblr_mm06k6hUg91qc9q52o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>#Ink #doodle of a #skull. “Who’s dead??”</p>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49162853565http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49162853565Sun, 28 Apr 2013 23:12:06 -0700doodleskullink<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/dba1bb335112b4538fc46080680767de/tumblr_mm03b9ART51qc9q52o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>“Every second becomes beautiful once it becomes intentional.” #Writing #life #quote on #perspective #peace</p>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49159437490http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49159437490Sun, 28 Apr 2013 22:01:56 -0700quotelifepeaceperspectivewriting<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/c55dd4c3f8eb43a50cb03f381ebd2fe3/tumblr_mly41gBP2f1qm3r26o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The 21st century: where polygamy exists across people and objects. </p> <p>Via <a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://visualgraphc.com/post/49108924834/modern-love">visualgraphic</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/128269344/modern-love-12x18-print">Modern Love</a></p> </blockquote>http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49152290716http://flooree.tumblr.com/post/49152290716Sun, 28 Apr 2013 20:15:20 -0700
