The World Needs Art

The world needs art.

Art establishes connections between strangers.

It tells a story, takes you some place.

It comments on society, humanity and the world.

It expresses feelings and invokes responses.

It lets us know we’re all in it together.

The world needs my art.

It needs my art because my art is about this beautiful world.  It’s about making connections between water currents and fern fiddle heads.  It’s about the similarity in the curvature of a spine and the shape of a wave.  And it’s about a transparent seashell and the palm of your hand.  It’s about re-connecting this crazy mass of humanity with the beautiful and patient Earth.  We might be forgetting to look up and see that we are all part of the whole as well as the million small parts that make it up.  We are so intimately connected that we practically share the same blood–water.
