getting started

In lieu of a blog I put this into an email. And what a chance to see the direction this will go. I find I don't know how to spell the second word! But I took a couple stabs then tried out the result in my handy dictionary and wallah! Problem solved. There's a favorite song coming on. I hear it drifting (?) up from the kitchen where my sister in law is getting ready for a wedding reception coming in a couple weeks. Of course so busy with these words the song is drifting away. It meant a lot to me once. Everything is beautiful. Part of a religious endeavor. Mostly it just woke up the adolescent participants to the presence of their fellow beings. It seemed priceless at the time and the ecstatic effect lasted and lasted. Of course I went away to become an artist (ha!) and I left those feelings behind. So I've become this artist and have come upon a dilemma. I've always seen it coming. A time when I have to find a way to get the day behind me. I'll go on and on about this as that is the nature of this endeavor; to spend time. So settle in, give this a few more minutes and you'll get the drift of what's coming. I hunt and peck and have seen film of full time writers who never overcome this tendency so I expect I will remain a slave to this pace. But it keeps my mind occupied while I think so to speak. Writers block. Come now. It's a never ending stream if I can help it. All in the name of trying to push my paintings to the fore. If you're here the point is to do what you can to help me in my efforts to pay back the government. That would be the result if I ever became rich and famous. And why not me? The main paintings came from a time when I was throwing off 25 years' depression. Surely that proves they're deep in psychological content and what more could you ask for. Blog spot. That's the name of it. I'll go look it up. You'll never notice I'm gone.
Well, that didn't take but a moment. So right off I notice the spell check but more on that subject after I go in and try to insert a picture.
Shall we get started? This is all in support of my website and the paintings contained therein. I'll mention it. www.12m.us . Now I'll go see does it show up in color in the final blog. I'll be back.
