'As an artist, it matters to me how well i paint my self portrait. 
As every stroke that I use will represent myself & my family, my way of thinking. As it is on display in the musical gallery of life for all to see. Some pieces will be of greater beauty than others, but all will cultivate & mature as I do, until the paint runs out...'LyricL
