I love art, I love the concept of art, and I love to create art. For me, art has a purpose to our natural existence. It is one of the things that separates us from anything else on earth: the desire to create something for the purpose to create, and to create something to give some type of expression. We do not necessarily need to create anything artful to survive. You can create something to survive; but in general, we make art because we have an idea or a feeling that we desire to project outwardly. Whether its in a painting, in a song, in a story, in an invention, in a dance, whatever other venue it might be, every individual has the capacity and the driving will to create something. It is a human characteristic that is from God. In the beginning of the book of Genesis, in the Old Testament in the Bible, God's first characteristic we see is that God is the maker of heaven and earth. Essentially God is THE FIRST ARTIST! All creation that came from Him was non existent, and gives admiration or glory to Him. We as human beings mimic this characteristic because we have the desire to make from imagination or thought, and everything we make gives some kind of expression or admiration. Just like every individual who exists is an artwork of God and we exist to give admiration. These are the reasons why I have such a passion for everything that is art.
