Drive.

This forum focuses on the artistic "why" and "what" more than the technical "how". Put more philosophical (but still art and glass related) posts here.

Drive.

Post by Haydo »

What is it? For me it seems to be to find a lifestyle that encapsulates all that is missing. I find it harder each year to pose as the functioning being that fits the model that has been set for me. At the moment I'm enjoying a reprieve as a remote fitter/dogger/trucky. I have always wanted to be creative, make things, be an artist. It was only after a glorious meltdown and subsequent rehab that I found glass as a medium that I could not walk away from.
I like the idea of collaboration, to teach and share with disadvantaged, to travel, be around like minded and smoke the good stuff without fear of persecution. Simple life.

peace, haydo
