There is this sound behind my ears and it makes me sit up and paint more..and draw more. @rambo gave out a home work assignment about how SG changed our lives. I have tried to remember just how it came about and then it hit me.
I was 23 working in North Carolina as a bartender and feeling like shit mostly. I was very depressed and poor struggling artist and a friend told me about the SG site. I just figured before I knew anything that it was a porn site and I wasn't going to pay for porn. He showed me the groups and the sets he had helped a hopeful shoot and I was hooked. This was in the height of Myspace mind you. So I was deep into sharing my work online. Every one was so nice and felt at home finally. I found a place where I could talk and share and watch and learn and make real friends on and off the site. It has been amazing. I vanished sadly for a few years but happily I came back and I have been moved to be a better artists and friend ever since. I got the name Jay is a painter from Myspace art show where one of the SG ladies was a guitarist and I wanted a cool name to go under their band name and so .........www.jayisapainter.com ten years later stayed and grew into me now. I feel like I'm never done growing.......thank you very much SG's and hopefuls ...you inspire me each day.
