Jul 5th 2008 Statement
Arte soy. I am art.
How about you? I hope your response is resoundingly affirmative.
Art is a happening all the time, all around us. But we don’t always notice it. Once we begin to see art and feel art, it is supremely enjoyable. Better still is to be art, creating art.
I used to think some people had the gift of creativity but most did not (and that I generally belonged to the latter, when not otherwise entertaining a false sense of superiority). Then I began undergoing an awakening of sorts and I discovered, among other things, great potential — not only in me but also in everyone!
My wish is for Arte Soy to be a catalyst for artistic expression. I want my contribution to forward the causes of integrity, harmony, and creativity. I do not wish to offend nor do I want to embarrass myself. I do want, to quote Jose Marti, “to pour the verses from my soul.”
Godspeed!

I think this effort is a beautiful one, and I’m a little bummed that I JUST now discovered this. How exactly does one contribute to this project? Could anyone send in a piece and after certain review have it displayed here on this site? Sorry to bombard you with questions! Take it easy, sir.

Hi Sarah, congratulations on being the first “random” person to find my site and leave a comment. And you would like to contribute something? I’ve waited a few years and suffered hundreds if not thousands of spam comments for this moment! Plus I checked out your blog and I really dig your writing. So yes, please do send me something! You can email it to me (Josh) at joshananda108@yahoo.com
