Expressing Yourself
One of the best things about art is being able to express yourself. True enough, it is the pinnacle of art. And it is important that you do not only become really good at guitar playing but it also becomes an instrument to expressing yourself and what you feel. An artist is someone who can effectively express himself through his medium. In this case, you will be expressing yourself through your guitar playing. In older times, people would associate the word, artist, to someone who is well-versed is known to produce really awesome art. The term is reserved for those who have achieved high levels of excellence. But then again, when you think about it, you become an artist once you are able to share yourself through your music. The first step to becoming one is to stop seeing yourself as just some guitar player. It would be a lot better if you see yourself as a musician. You are at least learning to become one. And this is the right road to becoming a true artist. Music is your medium and the guitar your instrument. The artist is none other than yourself. Beginning this day, you will say that you are an artist when someone asks you what you are. If they press you for more details, tell them that you use music as your medium and the guitar as your instrument. This will guarantee that people will see you differently. You put a different impression into people's minds. You don't stop at the fact that you play the guitar. You make music with a guitar. The positive way of viewing yourself affects the way you think when you are trying to do something musically. So now you have established that you are an artist. The next thing to do is to visualize what you want to come up with. Like a sculptor, visualize what you want to create. And then start carving away at the raw material. This is a form of destructive creation. You remove all the material needed in order to come up with something really interesting. This method is similar to how guitar players come up with songs. They start with the improvisation of chords, riffs and melodies. And this can go on for hours at end until they "stumble upon" something that sounds really good. If you have taken a shot at this, you will notice that on most days you will not like what you try out. There are less times that you like what you come up with during the day. The difficult part is to be able to connect the verses with the refrains and the choruses. You need to come up with something to get them to connect beautifully. And musicians need a lot of help when it comes to details. This is where the creativity starts working full-time. This is where you incorporate the transitions through riffs and chord patterns. And when you're done, you can fine tune by adding some more or taking out what you think is necessary. When you are satisfied (and are happy) with what you have come up with, then this is truly something that you can call a composition of your own; something borne from your brain and poured from your heart.
Many years ago there lived an Emperor who was so exceedingly fond of fine new clothes that he spent vast sums of money on dress. To him clothes meant more than anything else in the world. He took no interes
