that pesky thing called money - or lack thereof - always standing in the way.

I suggest listening to https://yewtu.be/watch?v=J46sRuj99Cw while reading, because you can't appreciate music as a whole, if you can't appreciate Dobro.

So so so much yes to this! Music, it drives everything I do - no hyperbole there. Thanks for the insight into your life, struggle, and win! \m/

@paintkiller, thanks for reading my drunk ramblings, I'll admit, a little embarrased about the shit i posted, but why hide it, this is who I am. I knew you'd get it, cause i know both of us have a major influenced musical background.

Eh, don't feel embarrased, man. That's what these personal spaces are for. I get it being maybe a little more than you think you'd typically share or whatever, but it was well written and rang true with me and my experiences more than it didn't.

Appreciate it brother, I guess alcohol can be a good thing, I'll say things I don't usually say lol. Sometimes, I just need to let these memories out. Sharing them with family just does't have the same effect.

@paintkiller Funny thing about that one, I had absolutely no idea in my head when I drew those circles. Then I thought, I'll connect them with some weird goo or something, and it worked out lol, I didn't even think about the DNA thing!

@paintkiller It's been years since my last tatt, So I know the feeling! My family thinks im crazy, 'cause I like the feeling of needles. Hard to explain, its like a release of many emotions rolled into one, and that sting of the needles is almost therapeutic. And appreciated on my work, that last doodle took me about a week.

There might likely be some people who take issue with this, but I'm gonna say this - go by the cheapest calligraphy set available at your arts/crafts store. Seriously. Then go buy a bunch of chisel tip paint markers. Then go do the basic YouTube tutorials on how to writer letters. Tools aren't nearly as important as ppl think if you have an idea and a single creative gene.
appreciate the advice my man. I'm with you on tools bit. same goes for anything, as long as you have the knowledge, tools are just a way to bring it out. When I was learning art as a kid, it was always "you need this, or that" but all I ever used was a pencil and paper, and it worked just fine.
I think limitations breeds innovation, no matter the industry or whatever. Be stoked to see what ya do @ENFLICTED!
