Art is the Bridge, the Gate, the Door to seeing, hearing, feeling Life as ‘So Much More’.

Artists are Creators, ReCreators, Transformers-

selves expressing the Self in many varied ways-

lives expressing Life in the sublime and mundane.

Artists are bridges, gates and doors,

revealers, inspirers, motivators, communicators

of the wonders and true magic of Life.

Art is Life expressing Itself in us-

we who open to Art as Life Itself in us.

Only Closed Minds and Hearts and Souls

limit, restrict, confine, deny Art as Life in us-

God’s own glory flowing through us,

measured and filtered though it be.
