Thought For The Day

Sometimes we are so moved by the beauty we observe in nature that we are stopped in our tracks and are overcome with a feeling of reverence and awe. We are lifted out of our everyday concerns and live totally in that moment of wonder and grace. We feel like we are in harmony with everything around us.

We, as artists, have the opportunity to bring this feeling into people’s lives though the art we create. Art can bring people to a moment of discovery, a moment of awe, a moment of feeling so uplifted and connected to what we are expressing that tears are brought to their eyes.

All boundaries, all preconceived ideas, all judgments we create in our minds are resolved and only a feeling of being connected to the sublime exists in these moments.

As artists, we have a need and a passion to express the beauty we experience all around us … in nature, in the creation of the body, in the simplicity of form and function. Maybe we also have the opportunity to inspire a vision in others as to what possibilities exist to add to the beauty in the world, through a desire to express our vision through the arts.

This desire is universal and brings the world together in a way no other endeavor does because it doesn’t create division – it unifies.
