How much of your life do you want to share with virtually strangers “friends of friends”?
And another philosophical concept I will present here is “Retaliation”
That energy goes into the Universe. I mean, it can’t be that strong, but it’s just interesting…….
It’s been four hours since I posted this “poetry” a stretch I am sure into the network to relieve my soul…..
war or jealously (neither i want in me)
………………………………………………………………………………………………………maybe this is cheap but it brings laughter or release & sweet relief thru art my go to savior where I choose to direct this piss energy
Writing words, sharing them it’s dope. And noodling on the piano. Peace.
Started on an awesome environmental solutions and awareness gig at Surf Incubator in downtown Seattle, a short skate to Pioneer Square. Loving it!
Surf Incubator Lobby
Seattle is amazing! Such an excellent place to be for a young professional/musician. Played music tonight with a great friend, and omg we sounded so good together, just singing our hearts out! Talked about playing out, we’ll just have to see where it goes, but in the meantime, I am thanking Santa and the Universe for my good fortune with my latest client, and it’s for the health of our Planet Home to heck yeah. Peace.

What an awesome discovery in Seattle, Creative Mornings!
8:30 in the morning and awesome vibes! My first Creative Mornings and I felt like a kid at Great Adventure, well, that’s an exageration, but after all I am a creative. But totally fun and pretty exciting. This time it was a talk on “Fantesy” And it was at Cinerama which is a dope venue.
And also I have been practicing my passion, my PASSION!
short movie for Seattle Minute Movies
My first Creative Mornings, what a blast!
So much good inspiration….
Which is making cool art. And playing so much music. As I strive to find the right gig in Seattle, I have been busking it (drums and guitar in turns), almost every day to make sure I am not cutting into my savings, and it has been really awesome. I am getting so much better at music, which is my main passion.
This evening at The Carr Center in Midtown Detroit “You are Here” Opens featuring “The Wall of 100 Makers” which includes artwork by Anna Thoreau mural artist and painter.
“Sea of Aire”, A painting by: Anna Thoreau, influenced partly by the Portugal The Man song of the same title is part of the “Wall of 100 Makers” currently touring Detroit art venues. #wallof100makers
Sea of Aire by: Anna Thoreau
Sea of Aire is my first painting I did right when I first became friends with one of my besties a rockin Detroit based Artist, and her soul sister. I was totally newb to the art scene and we three exploded that night in a beautiful soulful live-painting session at the Lofts off the Riverwalk close to downtown Detroit. The Diamond D.
It’s pure creativity from the soul of this world. I painted it when I first started busking playing the bucketdrums at the Lions and Tigers games.
Basically, it’s coming into myself as a freelance creative be it music I’m free-styling, writing, painting, or coding it’s pure expression from budding talents and friendship blooming in an hour –the kind that cries, and laughs hysterically and makes your heart grow. There’s a rawness and a vulnerability that has to be present to create works like this.
