The Sound Of Music

Today's post is actually going to be very brief, at least for me, but nonetheless important. I thought that it was rather neglectful, on my part, that I hadn't shared more of my background as an artista with you. I feel like I just sprung up out of no where offering my do's and don'ts about...well a lot. My story begins with a true and never ending magic in me. It is my starting point, from which all my imagynation flows. It is also my refuge, or as I like to call it, my secret place. If you want to know how it all began for me...you'll find it in the sound of music.

Since I can remember, I've always had the gift of writing, and singing. I can hear any song, in any genre, and quickly catch on to the melody and the background harmonies. I used to take poems hanging on the wall at my grandmother's house, and turn them into lovely songs that I would sing over and over again. Now, of course, we all know that my business is photography. So it's ok that some of you are probably thinking, "how does music relate to photography?" or even, "why aren't you a musician?" I can only explain it this way...Music, for me, is about sharing or better yet, communicating. Photography is simply another means of doing just that. When you look at a slide show of photos, if you think about it, isn't it really the telling or sharing of a story. And really, that's what binds all of the professions in the arts. So, as an artista, and forgive me, I just like the sound of artista. I am a musician, I am a photographer, and I am a writer. And you'll find that I incorporate all of those parts of me into my profession of photography. So when you look at my work...see if you can hear my song.

As always, I've offered a showing of my work. We'll call this one, "The Sound Of Music." I hope that you enjoy. Be sure to visit http://www.daretoimagyn.com/.
