Painting is a way of communicating and revealing the individual truths of the artist. The most powerful paintings are those that tell a story and leave you with a sense of wonder and mystery. They provoke you to feel and furthermore act. This lingering sensation is the magic of Art. It is where the two-dimensional painting gives way to a world of imagination. These stories can encompass emotions and feelings or explore the personal ideals of its creator. They can harbor deeply rooted frustrations or exemplify the most beautiful vistas of the artist’s world. It is at this moment, that artistry bridges the gap of physical with spiritual and unlocks the power of the conceptual mind. For those brave enough to challenge themselves with the artistic journey, whether as creator or patron, they are granted an unparalleled view into the heart of the universe, the birthplace of the astounding.

Artists are told many things about the way the world is, about who they are, and how worthy their work may or may not be. It takes a lot of courage sometimes to continue in the face of what seems like never-ending negativity. But, we have that ultimate freedom. We are free to choose what we think and how we respond to those “slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,” which may neither be arrows nor outrageous. We have the power to choose wisely.
