Artist in Trance Has Epiphany

I've been on a drawing kick lately and even gotten into coloring to trying and flesh them out a little more. I'm sure other artist kind of go into this trance-like state while they're working. Well I just got done with a Superman/Super Girl piece and during the coloring process which has got the most grueling aspect of drawing with pencil I had a thought about how relaxing this was and how the world wouldn't be so uptight and stressed-out if they could spend an hour a day doing something like this. All penile systems should mandate some type of artistic expressional class for at least an hour a day, if not more. All schools should have mandatory 4 years of art yet you hear all the time how the arts are the first to go in an economic crunch. That's insane when you think of all the different benefits everyone would get, even if it was just a hobby. It's proven that children who learn music at an early age are better adjusted socially (probably because they're always performing in front of others) and because music is basically another numerical language, I believe it gives children an edge scholastically. It just makes sense for everyone to get involved in their community to bring about some type of artistic forum for everyone to go. Just like every town should have a library they should also have an art building where you can check out supplies, templates, instruction, instruments and everything else a person needed to get started on whatever journey they choose and by whatever means they choose to travel. Parents; get involved. Teachers; get involved with the parents; Government; who are we kidding you're too busy giving money away to thieves to do any good. That leaves us to fend for ourselves so we might as well do it right and do it proudly and do it for the future benefit of our children.

Ain't it good to be G!
