Be a doer... like Izzy last Sunday on Grey's Anatomy

So it's on... this new website that is. I
could have complicated the heck out of this project but after a few
days of sorting and a little determination, I have both an online store/gallery and this blog to talk about it.
Almost a year ago I quit my coffeebar job to use my degree as an artist. I cannot even begin to talk about how many people told me how hard it is to make it as an artist. Well, they had a point. I am now serving coffee again, but only one day per week. I enjoy the social aspects of the job.
Over the last year I have scraped up the motivation to keep pursuing my budding career as an artist. Every time I thought about getting a real job that pays the bills because things got tough financially, a blessing of hope came along. I completed three commissions last year, lined one up for this year and sold a few paintings. I have done sidewalk artshows and was discovered by a gallery that approached me. I even woke up to a photo of my work on the cover of a community newspaper. I have become involved with a local art league and go to occasional workshops. I have done a lot of research on the business end of being an artist and I am hopeful.
After watching a program by Suze Orman about being young, fabulous and broke, I came to realize that now is the time to follow my dreams. It's not the time to make money necessarily.
I feel like a doer!

Hi, I am commenting on the largest scientific hoax to be played on the human consciousness in recent history. The Bang Theory! It is not unreasonable to think that our Universe begin with bang, I would think that every living thing on the planet begin with a bang of some magnitude. However, to simply say that our Universe began with a big bang and no other explaination as to:who,where, when, or why, makes that statement pointless and a bit empty. It leaves too many unanswered questions, questions that one needs in order to make sense of it.
Science, on the other hand, is quite comfortable with the big bang theory as is and do not recognize any other factors that may or may not have contributed to the explosion that send a Universe radiating into space. Stephen Hawking, one of the leading scientific minds today, in his book, "A Briefer History of Time", states: "as far as we are concerned, events before the big bang can have no consequences and so should not form part of a scientific model of the universe. We should therefore cut them out of the model and say that the big bang was the beginning of time. This means that questions such as who set up the conditions for the big bang are not questions that science addresses" p.69.
To say that events before the big bang are of no consequences, is like saying events before the renaissance or any other points in history are of no consequence, but we all know that is not the case. The time before the bang was crucial, especailly to time after the bang. There are many factors to consider when contemplating our beginning. They connot be measured or formulated in a mathematical sense; but nevertheless, they are a testement to the power, energy, and wisdom of the Creator, God, the Intellegant Designers, etc., who caused us to come into being.
Science may not want to recognize the energy that is God, etc., but it is. Common sense logic would dictates that before one could have and explosion of a universal magatitude a space needs to be created somewhere and made large enough to contain the blast. Then, there are the materials. Where did all the gases, mimerals, elements, etc. came from? They had to come from somewhere and places in the center of the space, and at the right moment, when everyone was at a safe distance, Ignition! Bang!
The Gods now have some work to do, The Creator, God, the Intellegant designers, etc. They have to warp and curve space in order to cool and harmonize all those elements that are now flying everywhere. Prehaps, the elements were programed like cells. Some programed to become stars, and others planets.
So, let's imagine for a while, the power, energy, knowledge it would taken to capture a star, our Sun, and surround it with planets. Imagine what it took to make one of those planets a place for flesh dewlers. Maybe, there is life on all our planets, they are just unique to those individual planet dewlers.
Until next time,
Lazarus
