Hello fine people.
This is Brad Freeman again.
I was asked this morning, why you wanted to be an artist??? And I thought I'd make a video to express my thoughts that are on my written blog. The B.A Freeman Experience (https//:www.thebafreemanexperience.blogspot.com) under why did I want to be an artist??? That post.
For me it boils down to three things:
It gave me... Art gave me a vehicle to openly and honestly get my message out to the masses. Secondly, it helps me feel like I'm being a productive member of society, so that people will take me seriously as a person, hopefully. And not just a person with cerebral palsy, who can't walk under his own power, needs help with everyday basic needs, because of his range of motion, motor skills, and muscle tightness. But does everything like everybody else, just highly modified. And third, it might give me some sort of income for when I have no one else to depend on...
So these are why I chose to be an artist. Theater, film, music, art, football coaching, martial arts etc. Anything considered an art.
Thank you for your time guys and gals. Till we talk again.
Bye bye.
