Focusing on the visual arts in Austin, Tx. This well designed webzine and print magazine will publish my rants and raves and miscellaneous expositions.My first feature is posted on their home page. So go check it out!!!I will be writing features for their print version and maybe a monthly/biweekly short for the web. They are a well planned and organized group and I applaud their professionalism. Of course, you might be wondering why in the hell would they want me then. But I assure that they are masterminds out to shape my voice to their bidding and help the world understand and enjoy the visual arts. www.cantanker.com | Happy Birthday?09/16/06 03:21 PM AmusitationsBirthdays warrant mixed responses from people. When they are young, birthdays mean getting older, and with that more freedom. As people get older, they start to see it as a hindrance, a step closer to geezerness. Well I say bring it on! In the tradition of the young I will look forward to the coming years.My desire to reach a ripe and boisterous geezerness is in full force. I can't wait until people will just shake their head and accept my quirks. "That old man Haley," they would say, "he says weird things that don't make sense, but you know, I think there is something actually profound about him... oh, shhhhh..... check it out... he just dosed off in the middle of a sentence."The problem here is that, though I am looking forward to growing old, I am in a bit of a funk at the end of my thirty-third year of life. I think it is because I am not a rich artist yet. But that can't be it, I have always known that financial security through art creation isn't something that is going to happen until I am at least in my mid forties.Maybe it is because my love life is in the shams. Yeah, that is probably a big part of it. I've always been addicted to companionship...... I don't know where I am going here... both within this writing, and in my life. I don't know what I want to do. I am not to sure I have been enjoying what I have been doing so far. By all means, I am not disappointed with the way the last thirty-three years have unfolded, and would never give any of it back, well, except for the two times I got food poisoning and spent the night wishing for death and making all sorts of promises to God I could never keep if He would just make the pain go away.What I think is happening, is that I am not letting go of control. I have fallen off my boat and am losing my energy to stay afloat. My reality is getting dreamlike, and my dreams are becoming more and more real. Somehow I have to let go without ever losing my grip. I have to set a rule of no rules, and enjoy the pain without hating happiness. Yep. That is it. All I have to do is stop to finish, and get it done to go on, look back to see my future, and look forward to feel the past. Basically, I must become a conundrum. Easy enough. I'll get right on it.Happy Birthday to everyone, the ones I have missed and the ones I will miss. May your years go by giving you a rich and colorful palette of experience. | Do you have my art?08/19/06 08:50 PM AmusitationsI wonder how many people there are in the world? Could I make everyone an art piece? The pieces would have to be pretty expressive, because I am sure I would have to make more than a hundred a day, if I was to reach my goal before death. And what about all the new people being born? At least the people dying would make up for some of that, but what if we just keep going and growing into outer space? I guess I would have to start a foundation designed to keep up with the "ART FOR EVERYONE (literally)" or AFEL campaign.Oh boy! Wouldn't life be grand?Anyway... I am trying to gather images of my art hanging in people's homes, so if you have something, send me a pic. | © 2005 j.haley arts • artisgreat@mac.com • The Lounge
