I have often asked, what is art? Why I ask it? Why so many times? I am curious. I learned that when one asks the same question over and over one gets different replies… But, when I ask a question like this I am hoping to get some deep, visceral answers, not the typical ones… So, I ask you, what is art to you? Perhaps that is a better way to ask, as sometimes when you don’t ask the right question you don’t get the right answer, but when you ask it right, then thigs begin to open up… Sometimes I think art is like a bullfighter (very common in my country) approaching the meanest bull. Or it could be the other way around. What do you think?
Here is a little of what art has been to me over the more than thirty years that I have been at it professionally…

I think that Art is part of the history of humanity, starting with drawings in caves thousands years old. Without art we would not evolved spiritually and it does enrich our lives.

Lovely art!
Your asking a great question that has many many answers. To me, art is history illustrated. Art is someone’s soul being preserved through paint, marble, stone, lead, and more. Art is essentially everything!
