I want to destroy the idea that art is something that is made by a specialized class of people.

I can't draw for shit, never really learned to paint, can't make music, can't do so many things.

But there's lots of things I can do. I write, sometimes. I've learned how to make simple jewelry. Right now, I'm making silicone copies of penises. And dammit, all that counts.

There's so, so many things out there that qualify as art, and I know there's some that you can participate in the creation of.
