Art is the ability to create something that has the capacity to live and inspire forever...
It is the ability to capture something (a moment or a feeling) that is so personal that is is common...
It is the idea that while feeling something is a solitary experience, it binds us all as human beings...
It is the state of consciousness that suppresses the mind and allows the soul to control the strokes of a paintbrush and picks of a guitar string...
It is the courage to travel deep within ourselves, past our thoughts, through our minds and into our souls and isolate and identify that which makes us unique individuals...our perspectives
It is the challenge of traveling deep within ourselves, past our thoughts and into our souls in order to free our perspectives from the shackles of our rational minds, and taking that perspective back through the same course and creating something that accurately and completely captures the challenges we faced to identify it and humbly returning it back to the world from where it originated in the hope that it may one day inspire others to have the courage to do the same...

Planes are one of the most inspiring places. When you're on a plane you have to sit still and just think. I had so many interesting conversations with myself while on a plane. It's probably the only reason I miss traveling on a weekly basis.
