ARTIST STATEMENT

As an InterArtist, I work in most studio arts and I am passionate about helping others build their understanding of the arts as they build their own artistic individual skill sets. I hope that I am a part of broadening their understanding of the cultural and historical significance behind the art forms studied. I believe the holistic aspect of our work involves both the aesthetic, and the inspiration behind the visual features, or "Beneficial Tertiary Creativity" as I call it. Understanding the timeframe, and location, and knowing more about why artists create or how an art form came about is critical. Learning the brush stroke or application of color is a mere aspect of creation. Understanding the historical impact of the work, and why it has withstood time is the true information and appreciation behind the creation. This helps develop a fluent creative language. For those who find passion in art, it is the means to communicate throughout their lifetime. Art can fuel the soul, and replenish us. We adorn our spaces, and our bodies and comfort ourselves with decor. Art can be cathartic and therapeutic in nature. We make an impact on this world by leaving our marks, however brief they may be. It is an exciting experience to inspire others in the process of doing so and thus I appreciate each individual who allows me the opportunity to be a part of their time here by collecting my work and learning from me.
