The word passion comes from the Latin “patior,” meaning to suffer or to endure. These days, losing its uncomfortable roots, passion is a feeling of unusual excitement, enthusiasm or compelling emotion toward a subject, idea, person or object. Here’s how to get it:
Revisit and repossess your core dreams and fantasies.
Consider your dreams to be private, unique and sacred.
Get help from and watch the actions of the already passionate.
Indulge, honour and live in your own imagination.
Don’t talk about it, do it.
See your passion manifested into action or production.

Well I guess I can reveal what I made for my siblings and stepmother, now, since Christmas is over, and I delivered Richard’s today. These are silkscreen, and acrylic on canvas, and are 10×8 inches.

George Brecht dies
George Brecht, Fluxus Artist-Provocateur, Dies at 82
Fluxus, the loosely affiliated international group of playful Conceptual artists that emerged in the early 1960s.
I have a tenuous connection to the Fluxus group though one of the professors at my Alma mater (UMO), Owen F. Smith
Some of his work, and some more.
Smith, also wrote Fluxus: The History of an Attitude
