Money Changes NOTHING!!!

Money won't buy you an extra go around. You certainly won't be able to bribe an earthquake, hurricane or an asteroid with it. Yes... It buys you food. Yes... It helps you find shelter. But money can't find you love. Money will not bring you peace of mind. The most disheartening thing for me as an artist is the growing trend to hold art hostage for a ransom. The arts have been oversaturated with greed and not passion. I hope that someday the balance will return and art will be a form of expression and not a vehicle personal gain. We are ALL meant to benefit from true art.

I'll remember you said this when you're so in demand that you have to charge a $million a session just to keep the phone calls to a minimum. And hey, how's my favorite non-smoker?
