Art to hang is good art. Compared to life, its the good times, the happy thoughts, the great memories. I love hang-able art.
Good Times: casserole surprise dinners, playing with children, hearing a baby laugh, going swimming, watching the sun rise or set, taking a nap, reading a good book, getting a nice big hug!
Happy Thoughts: Starting an Art Gallery/Museum for the Blind, where they can touch all the paintings, sculptures, and where seeing people can experience life challenges as a blind person. Starting a charity to get people to help each other using their talents, time, and resources, to heal the sick and afflicted. Spending time together as a family.
Great Memories: the many trips my family has taken to Disney World. Why? Because each trip got better and more fun! Being young you're completely enthralled with the magic of Disney, all the pretty things, and Characters that come around to see you as a child. Being a teen you focus on running through the place getting in as many rides as you can, beating the long lines, and acting cool on scary rides. Being an adult and going with your own children, lets you have fun with the characters again, you get to unleash your inner child without feeling stupid. Adults love to relive the good old days.
When I actively chase fame I forget about my hang-able art. I forget all the good times I have experienced in my life. I forget what truly makes me happy. I forget that I do actually have great memories, and want to keep making more each day. Chasing fame is hard, disappointing most of the time, easy for me to become pessimistic and depressed. Chasing fame usually means I'm trying to figure out how to change my normal life into a life where people all over know who I am, and I have lots of money. But if I were famous I would have a really hard time covering my life with hanging art.
