Prayers & Things

Post by inlikeflint »

A few months ago I asked a lot of people to pray for me for added help in securing building for art and other things.

I didn't work.

Actually, It didn't work the way I wanted it to work.

There are a lot of things that did happen that probably would not have happened had I not asked for the help;
What I experienced was probably the most intense barrage of prompts i had ever received.
My moods began to swing a lot more...
I got my truck driving job back at the last second to pull me out of a hole I had managed to put myself into.
I manged to become flush with my rent on both buildings I lease.
My art work started getting noticed again...
My art business started... and is still sputtering along... It's not profitable but it isn't deceased.
I received an offer to show my work at an art fair downtown (in my town) on Mother's day...so, I will show my old art work,or new if I have time & money to put something new together...
I managed to get enough money for a new camera that has a video camera for a Kickstarter idea (money generator for creating more art work & getting the building"s" I need.) I received while driving a truck. (I sort of meditate/day dream while I drive.)

Anyway,I grateful and thankful for those who took the time to send me some energy and love, and requests from the greater source... I was needing it. I don't have my building but it is still for sale, and maybe it's just waiting on me to get there.
Things all work out in the end somehow.

That's really incredible ! ! ! It's funny, at first it can seem like your prayers weren't answered . . . it can just take a while to notice that they were! In maybe a different way than you'd hoped, and sometimes in a way that might make more sense!

Pretty cool . . I'm so happy for you and I'll keep on the case sending you energy. :loves

With love, Michele

Thank you!

The truck driving part I dislike... But everything else becomes the part I think I would rather occupy my time with.

Well, even with that, truck driving offers lots of time-prompts!! I never am so prompted as when I'm on the road. ;)

Cheers! :loves

Hey flint, it's nice to see you

Well, I am glad some things are turning out, even if it's not exactly what you "wanted" to begin with. As you said, things work out in the end somehow.

I think it's really important that things with art are at least surviving, not to mention the opportunities to show some of it and as well, more potential opportunities with the new camera. Regardless of financial and material situations, there is something very powerful about the connection a human being, an artist, has with their art, and it can be very painful to feel detached from that or uninspired no matter how other things in your life work out. I have to ask, would you ever mind sharing anything with me/us if that is in some way possible??

As far as the truck driving thing, perhaps it will not be necessary for long and at least it is something to get you by right now? I kind of like Michele's way of thinking too.. a chance for more prompts?? Haha! :bana:

All the best to you friend

Hey lucky,

Here's my SeeMe page of my work...
https://derekmiller.see.me/

There is supposed to be some sort of art show in Miami during Art Basel week in December. I needed 99 supports to qualify for every type of art exposure gimmick they have in their contest on their website. (Anyway,I received the 99th support at 11:11 today in my e-mail.) This is a big event in Miami... most of the booths start at $150K per booth Looks like my work will show virtually, but I will have to win grand prize to physically show my work to collectors there... My art work is already old and I need to be creating new, but I don't seem to be receiving what I need to start cranking out the art work... so we'll see what happens here pretty soon.

I do see a lot of prompts when I drive. I'm really burnt out on driving though.

Things are happening though.

Peace & Love

Flint,

That's amazing that you received word of the 99th support at 11:11 ! Talk about getting help from the halfway realm! :shock:

On the case!!!

Thanks for sharing Flint!

I'm really glad that you were able to get enough of the supports as well. I really hope that everything goes well with the art show. Even if you didn't manage grand prize, the experiencing and sharing of art is still important and plus, it's one of those things in life... you never know where it could lead? You could very well be surprised by the reception you get, the possible networking that comes of these things, and the good old fashioned compliments and support I hope you get.

I love the whole toy car thing. Your work is put together very well. I really like that the titles convey there is more thought behind your works than simply making awesome visuals.. it is easy to tell that each one means something to you and there is a special thought, feeling, or meaning that inspires you. Speaking of inspiration, it can be hard to come by but sometimes the worn out or stale times in life create the foundation for giving ourselves the biggest kick in the rear.

Pardon me for being a bit silly, but with all things I just want to say "keep truckin" :lol:

It would just be nice to get some recognition... I'm back to to being fussy about things,and I am trying not to.

Thanks for checking out the art work and giving me some feedback... It's nice to have this every so often.

Beautiful work. I love it. Really remarkable. Wasn't able to see the 'Extra Virgin' in progress, though. Video wasn't working.

"Appreciation!!!" Good luck with the show, and hang in there, truck-driving friend.
Enjoyed the video a lot!

Peace,

Thanks for all of the comments.

I didn't win the grand prize...but I am still going to be projected onto a building in Miami (whatever good that is.) during the art Basel Miami show.
I go in tomorrow to go pickup a check at my truck driving job and I will probably go back to work for 4-5 months. (Yuck).

It's too bad that you didn't get the grand prize, but I hope you were able to get something out of the experience as a whole, even if only some positive feedback.

So back to work huh.. what's the plan now Flint? Is there anything else you can or would like to do on the art side of things in the near future? And in general, if you're going back to work for 4-5 months, where would you like to be or what would you like to do in or after that time?

All the best

I got into the digital art show in December in Miami... so that's something... and then I have a show at an art & book fair in my town in March or April... And now I'm sort of running my own gallery space at my art studio space. (I have some art work in the current show) In 4-5 months I think I would like to be able to leave truck driving to create art work and teach workshops in my studio.

That kind of sums it up in nutshell.

Keep going Flint, we're all behind you! Are any of your things on a website? Gallery shows are great for being the star of the moment, without competing like in a contest. Good Luck!

Thanks Jean... I really need to update my site... The contest thing is always a subjective rubbish-shoot.
Something is going on... I am getting some exposure.

Hey Flint,
I'm sorry you didn't win the grand prize but isn't it wonderful you are getting exposure. I'm saying a pray that things continue to look positive for you with your artwork allowing you someday to leave the truck driving behind and through your heart and soul into what inspires you and the rest of us who view it!
