They tried to tell me Art wasn’t a real job. They tried to tell me I should come up with a Plan B. They tried to push their fears onto me. And yet I continued to keep climbing anyways. This painting is about going after your dreams & maintaining an optimistic mindset. The journey is tough, but it sure makes for a great story to tell. The skull paint bucket on top of the Earth is my way of saying that art is my whole world & I am going to be doing this for the rest of my life! I crossed out "Fear" & "They" at the bottom because we are not listening to any excuses or FEAR that THEY will try to feed us. We will come out on top! It's all or nothing.
