Just Take the First Step...

I've said it time and time again, but I find art to be a way to inspire. Through art we can inspire many people as well as ourselves. That being said I recently did a couple of pieces to inspire me. One piece is of Monty Python's "Spanish Inquisition" skit. In the movie Sliding Doors the Spanish Inquisition is used as a metaphor for life: You never know what's going to happen and sometimes things don't pan out as you had planned. That is the first thing I need to remind myself of. The second piece I did was to inspire me to take the first step towards great things. I always want to do things and go places and meet new people, but I don't because I'm often too scared. However, this piece is to remind me that the first step is always the hardest and once you've taken the first step it's not so scary, and furthermore if you don't take that first step you'll never be able to soar to new heights.
