My antenna goes up in a multitude of different ways. It could be receiving when I listen and when I am thinking as little as possible. Sometimes it happens when I hear something and I've misheard it and I get a lyrical line from that. Sometimes I sit in a very quiet place and my mind is forming melodies and lyrics all at once. Sometimes it is triggered from what I read or see. When I go grocery shopping things come then. When I am driving in my car I find that is a great place to get ideas or go to the beach just to watch the water and waves and wildlife. The most exciting part is when I start to take the ideas and actually build the song from these ideas, I just let it take me wherever it is going and add and subtract as I go along.

It takes a great deal of work to write pre-produce record and put all the puzzle pieces together to present this art that I create and sometimes for little gain except the self satisfaction of enjoyment. There are many hurdles to overcome like trying to learn how to present the art in the medium I choose, interacting  commanding and controlling it in a logical manner. Many attempts and failures, humps, lumps and bumps have to be weeded out to get to the art show. 

Than you for reading
