I was very blessed to have a couple of caring professors in my university atmosphere. The peer group I associated with was exceptionally close-knit, smart, and talented as well - however, throughout the semesters to pass motivation, work ethic, and appealing thoughts dwindled, mainly I feel because ideas we used to characterize ourselves by simply became old. We were never at a loss for exposure of what's out there and good, etc., just at a loss for new opinions.I want to never be at a loss for new opinions and ideas. I want everyone to talk and realize differences in extremes between the arts, thus helping others and helping yourself. It might be nice. Getting new feedback on your work and having a drink too. Relaxing, working, and overall just doing something with those exceptional ideas you have. All you need is a camera or scanner or decent knack for description, the ability to use a computer, a bit of time to meet up in person perhaps, or perhaps to just chat on-line or possibly email, the motivation to do some art or at least think about doing something, and most importantly, the true gift of honesty (but for those this is lacking in, tactful cheesiness ought be fine - this way we'll laugh and forget you're a lier).Style is no excuse for pretension. However, pretension shall always be accepted. Just make sure it's deserved, or else you're lame."
