Creating things...especially songs...is
my calling. I have many of my songs on
YouTube...which I'm thankful for...because this chapter of my life is not a time of hoarding...but one of
offering a slice of my work to my world.
I am fortunate to have created many
original songs so there are no cover songs sung by me on this channel. I have not let commercial considerations
restrict what I create...so my creations
are about a wide variety of subjects. I
see my artist's job...as not that of an
entertainer...but to tell about as many
aspects of being human as I can...based on my experiences...observations...r eflections...
and use of my imagination...sharing what I've found...in a dignified way. I appreciate presenting my creations,,,here,,,
free of Gate Keepers...directly to the viewer...and letting each one speak for
itself. I am thankful to the many people who have encouraged me with their affirmative comments. They help me to keep on doing my
creative work. So...welcome to a slice of my work on video... including guitar improvisations...some about places and events...in the beautiful part of the world...I am fortunate to live in...and some about dancing...how would the world be without
dancing!. Peace. marakakore. P.S. My Quester Blog containing written entries...photographs...and some videos from this site is at:
