I believe that art and life are inextricably intertwined. The art you choose to be part of your home and your life should capture something in your soul, speak to you and make you feel fuller, maybe make you smile or laugh, add beauty to your day - however you define beauty. As you walk past it in that perfect spot every day, it becomes part of your daily life, part of your home, an expression of you, and so part of who you are. You may choose a piece of art because it fits with the life you live now, or, you may choose a piece that represents the you that is just around the corner, almost emerged, part of your evolution. My minimalist upbringing didn’t contain a lot of unnecessary items, most of what we had was practical and frugally purchased, sometimes resented for the way we needed it and the cost. Wanting something for pure beauty or amusement was rarely indulged. So, my art stems from a deep desire to fill something missing in my soul, a way of bringing alignment to my world, to luxuriate in a purely creative process that results in something peaceful, or fantastical, or amusing... hopefully always with beauty and joy. This can be yours also: you deserve beauty and joy in your life.
