What is a Velvet Underground?

August 29, 2025

 

I bet you are wondering what is a Velvet Underground. So as my first blogpost in The Vanishing Point Blog, I will define what it is.

 

An Artist living a creative lifestyle has a collective history of artistic experiences embedded in their soul. Artist are very aware of everything around them and absorb the background noise in layers of color, size, shape, texture, and intensity.

For example and ordinary person can see a sunset and see it singularly as that. An Artist sees the same sunset and is experiencing the texture of the clouds, the shape of the sun, the intensity of color, the values of color in the fading light and then deeply feels the joy of it all.

Artist naturally take the time and dissects their view like it is instinct. 

We are all a sum of everything we lived and experienced in our lives. So being an Artist living a Creative Lifestyle and looking at everything amplified, the brain is in a hyper sense of creativity constantly for years. The more you think creatively the more creative you will be. 

This is an Artist's Velvet Underground. It's the smooth beauty like the touch of velvet, creative knowledge delivers. It's the luxury of living life loving the things you love, acknowledging your specific objects of desire, trusting yourself in experimenting artistically, and a thirst for knowledge that you become a constant student of life, always eager to learn more.
