Shooting For The Moon…

Posted on August 12, 2016October 3, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Shooting For The Moon…

The art I make doesn’t ALWAYS have to be about Simple Minds, Jim Kerr, David Bowie, or birds (but they are the things that make my life good). It can just be a thought…a philosophy…a mantra…a belief. A need for self-belief and positivity. And it then turns full circle – because I do believe this is the kind of thing that Jim was trying (and succeeding – for the most part!) to give me earlier in the year (and sometimes still so) when liking and sharing my art – belief in myself and my ability. 

How could I not fall in love with him for doing that? Thank you, you beautiful, kind man 🙂
