Maybe I think too much, but I really need to ask WHY before I buy something. And while I know impulse buying isn't really applauded, I wonder whether art is something that really is ruled by Impulse Buying more than anything else. After all, the reason people impulse purchase is because it makes them FEEL good. And isn't that what art is meant to do? To touch a part of you deep inside - awaken a place inside that is moved on a deeper level, and makes you feel understood, makes you feel less alone ... makes you feel that there is more to life than just the daily grind.
And I think, it's this reaching out to one another that finally made me share out my art in items that can be purchased. When I create my art, I am really just putting down my own hero's journey into a visual capture (I am VERY visual right-brained). All I am doing is just reinforcing a message to myself. But one day I read something that stopped me in my tracks.
When I first read the words above, it moved me. All this while, my art was helping me process life and heal through my personal challenges. And while I have shared my art on facebook and twitter on a small scale, and had friends affirm me that they too felt touched by my sharing ... it never really hit me that I was GIVING.
If it something people would like to have for free, just a glimpse to fill their heart and move on .. then certainly, my art is available here on my blog and also on facebook and twitter. However, if there are others who are moved to bring it home with them ... as I too have brought the art of others home because it makes me feel connected to beauty and love in the midst of my ordinary living - then here is my art .. from the heart .. to be shared, at long last.
I send you my Love ... for Love joins the dots in all our lives ~
