Still processing #davidarnold .. being reminded of my undergrad professor's quote: "There are many craftsmen but very few artists." David was an artist. I remember him sharing various pieces of paper of different jokes (stories) he'd told over the years on his posts..to try out over multiple performances to narrow down the best for #itaintfortheweak which was #comedicgenius I did the same with both #babygirlplay and #gooddaughterplay before I staged them... Too many people throw up first drafts without really doing the work. He did the work most don't. He didn't it do it the easy way. He perfected it. He leaves a legacy for the artists of the future. Comedians or not. He did not half-ass his work! I am thankful for the reminder. The confirmation that I must stay on my path. I planned to post my news about joining the #wga yesterday. Instead I reflected on the artistry and commitment of a fellow artist whose work and mentorship directly affected several in my circle. Zero degrees of separation. Again. His daughters have a lot to be proud of and a dad that ADORED them. I'm glad they have each other. (I lost my dad as a teenager too.) His wife had a great love and partner. That experience can never be taken away. It's PRICELESS. Many never know such a love. His friends had a loyal brother. His family had a lot to be proud of. David overcame addiction and SOARED! His students had a lifelong mentor and cheerleader. (I had aspired to join them one day...Told him so too!!) His fans have the stories he left behind to enjoy. Us fellow artists? We have an example to follow. He was right. This sh** ain't for the weak. This is #survivalofthefittest for real. He had 27 years in this game!! David was a good man in Hollywood. A good man period. We all have a lot to thank him for. We were all so VERY blessed to have him. 🙏🏾 🎤 #creditsbitches https://www.instagram.com/p/CiSmtKlOsF9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
