We have taken a great deal of time lately on Clayart to discuss
signatures, pricing, what is "artsy", what is "craftsy", etc. Now, in a
turn for the better, we are toying with poetry.
The signature/prices/what is "artsy" thing is the same hydra headed
monster. There is a simple answer: do what YOU want to do. You'll do it
anyway.
But, in keeping with our turn to The Muse, I'll state it another way.
The time for arguing
and misunderstanding
is over -- Forget about
"high" and "low",
who is stoned,
who is sober, about
going this way or that.
There is an object
for every coin. Use-ful
things at one price,
use-less things
for more.
Use-ful
things appease your
conscience, use-less
things inflame the mind.
Be use-ful. Be use-less.
Be both.
Be yourself.
***************
I won't do this again. I almost promise.
