I Didn't Know How Empty...

The trip to NYC earlier this month with students was exhilarating, but I've been low since coming back.

We saw so many cool people, artists, and city life -everything was so ALIVE with people making things and doing exciting work –the kind of work I went to school to be a part of but don't do anymore! Trying to describe the feeling to a friend last week and this scene from John Boorman's Excalibur came to mind.

(Thank you, YouTube for having everything.)

I have an awesome gig here in SoBo, but need to bring some creativity back into my life so that at end of the days, weeks, and months, there's more than the emails I wrote and the ephemeral moments in class to look back on. I miss making art!
