There are not that many things in life that I am afraid of. I have somehow come to the conclusion that there is really nothing worth fearing in this adventure we call life. I used to fear my own death, but as I grow older, I embrace the future, death and all, catering to my own needs, staying alive is the real challenge. Maybe there is a little fear and excitement about the great unknown. So, why do I fear the word "Bio"? Why am I so reluctant to put down on paper anything about myself? Ah, the written word. Drawing, that’s easy, it comes natural. Telling a story about myself…please...do I have to? It’s not that I am ashamed of the person I have become. I am actually (secretly) proud of the fact that I can draw, never having ‘officially’ studied drawing, and yet there is nothing I can’t draw...just some things I won’t. I have gone to no fine schools or studied under any great scholars. No embossed diplomas or framed certificates to impress the masses with. In fact, I could not stand school. My mind was always right on the edge of the outside, peering through the window, watching how the wind sent waves through the grass, or admiring the shade under a tree...on the outside, that’s where I wanted to be. My father was my greatest teacher, being a self-taught artist himself. He was a wealth of information, and I soaked up his few words, though he probably never knew it at the time. I have been drawing farther back than I can point, and just keep on doing it like I know it, and with a little luck, someone, somewhere, will see my stuff and like it. I've read impressive Bios, I am not intimidated by them, but strangely, nor am I impressed by them. I still believe passionately in everything I create. I yearn to hear one other artist say “I am nothing, and I create for nothing but the pleasure that it brings to me.” If I ever heard those words from someone, it would cause my eyes to water and my heart to finally connect with another artist. You see, I don’t need to meet people who want to be artists...I want to meet people who need to be artists. Like a heavy burden ( perhaps my epitaph ) my Bio hangs over my head...and I hate this burden...I should not have to write it...someone else should. Vince Woodwick artist at large
