The Creative Act

Random Quote

The Unseen

Though artists generally aren't aware of it, that end work is a by-product of a greater desire. We aren't creating to produce or sell material products. The act of creation is an attempt to enter a mysterious realm. A longing to transcend. What we create allows us to share glimpses of an inner land-scape, one that is beyond our understanding. Art is our portal to the unseen world.
