Welcome to my blog on art and life. Its purpose is to educate and inspire – educate people on the idea that life is filled with art and inspire all to take the time to notice the art around them.
I can’t imagine life without art. Art is such an integral part of life. It is in the cars we drive, the homes in which we live, the buildings in our downtowns, the packaging of our favorite soda – it is nearly everywhere and in everything.
Sadly, when the average person is asked to define art, their definitions are limited to art in the traditional sense. It is difficult for most to wrap their heads around the idea that art is life. Every action taken, word spoken and decision made is an expression of the individual – an artistic representation of the person. From clothing to home decorations to the look and feel of your favorite Web site – art is everywhere.
What would the world be like without art? That is a scary, scary question. Your coffee cup would be white – no logo, no picture. Actually, would it even have a shape? An artist dreamed up the structure for that cup. Your home would be a white box without design and without color. Without art, life is not only boring but also it just isn’t life.
In this blog, I will dedicate each post to the art that makes life…well, life. If you have any thoughts or ideas for future posts, please comment or e-mail. Here’s to art.
