"Mute"- oil on black canvas 2009. What can I say: I love music!! I just don't love music I feel it and exude it with every skill I can. It's like the tapping of my brush. I love talking about music and what song did what and when. It's a mental trigger I like firing off all the time,nonstop. I used to watch David Lynch movies on mute, while playing my music. His movies had an impact on me for I could break down scenes on how he made his films. I'm intrigued by the movie making not it's bs politics,the same goes for music. I'm glad I learned the politics but I still want to Hope. When I was in my first and last "relationship,"we had a huge record collection. We loved music so much,we had to meet the artist. My BF at the time would have me get autographs from our favorite bands,until I got too good at it in my charm. Jealousy occurred and I walked away from the ultimate controlling love. I vowed that day I'd stay true to me by staying free,thus "tbfree" as my reminder. I swear music channels exactly what I need in a moment to survive life. Living gets hard at times when all is nasty politics surrounding the very essence of our freedom to express. To be an individual in modern day in my opinion is holding back one element of yourself from the bs politics until it's reached a certain rhythm. I'm not much a dancer to music but I do have rhythm in my wrists and in my voice. I've learned and embraced this about myself. To listen to music for me is mix of what the song did for me as well I like knowing its autobiography. True artists place their truth in their art.If theyre really good they'll give you truth not found in any history book or news.The older I get the wilder I am with my mind. For it will always play punk rock in the midst of my Submission. Rebellious Love like the song says it all.Ode to all the bands I've met. I'm honored that I speak a universal language that has kept me free to roam in this life of mine. Once free it's really hard to go back to any sort of control. I'll submit if it's true love and allow ones influence on me. Tho I feel it must be at mutual respect between two individual personalities or there is no Submission to love. ~tbfree
