I’m a true believer that for every bad thing that makes people follow their baser instincts there is an artist giving life to humanity’s higher instincts. The arts are what makes us aspire to our deepest inspirations. Every piece of art, as long as it is sincere and truthful, and whether from a beginner or a lifelong practitioner uplifts us all. And the best part of it is that each piece is unique. Art is the magic we do.

If you don’t mind I will continue to talk about what I see and why I like it.
