August 2nd, 2015. August 2, 2015. Creative Gone MAD, Day 1: Identifying the Problem. So why do most artists either go MAD or get MAD? What do I think about it? I think the answer to this question is fairly complex, actually. Many artists feel trapped condemned to a sort of revolving door of endless madness. Trying again and again, until by accident [or fate], they reach some level of […]. Read More ›. Life and the Pursuit of Happiness. Subscribe to Blog via Email. Follow me on Twitter.

8220;How long do we wait to live. Sometimes the secret is in the doing. Agnes De Mille once said:. Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. The artist never entirely knows. We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark. This poignant sentiment of discovery and revelation accurately describes the creative path of author and independent publisher Brian Bowers. After graduating from Oberlin College in 2008 as a first-generation college student, Mr. Bowers be...

August 9th, 2015. August 9, 2015. Creative Gone Mad, Day 8: Creating Opportunity. As I get older, I start to think about this ol’ life I’m living, and I just wonder what it looks like from the outside looking in. I don’t feel I am necessarily reckless, but boy do I take such risks for someone who is applauded for being sensible. I have rarely been one to […]. Read More ›. Life and the Pursuit of Happiness.

With each year that I get older, I start to feel like perhaps the next will be easier. It is now occurring to me that each obstacle is one that is shaping me into the person I am destined to become.

August 8th, 2015. August 8, 2015. Creative Gone MAD, Day 7: Identifying the Inner Critic. While I was working on a couple of different projects today, I had to ‘pull out’ a few skills that I do not and have not used in my professional life.

Originally Published on The Good Men Project. THE PAIN OF SEPARATION AND THE LOVE WITHIN. Read on The Good Men Project. I still remember when I read Kahlil Gibran for the first time. You’ve got to read this, it is amazing. The way he speaks is unbelievable, I yelled into the phone, tears clouding my vision. The phone was silent for a bit, before I heard I did read it and it is beautiful, but I don’t experience it in the same way you do. And it brought my dancing to a slow halt. I made my way to the m...

August 6th, 2015. August 6, 2015. Creative Gone MAD, Day 5: Identifying ‘The Will’ and Purpose. I was asked to talk about the topic of persistence, or what I am referring to as ‘the will’ and ‘purpose’ for lack of better phrasing. I think the will to create can be challenging. If one stops to reflect on the loneliness unveiled in artistic and creative life absent the glitz and glamour of […]. Read More ›. Subscribe to Blog via Email.
