One Reason For Making Art


Have you ever been so wronged in a situation that a large part of your understanding of your world is called into question?  How could something so wrong be portrayed as so right?  Much of modern art was created because of this one truth.  It is hard for the world to go through two World Wars, kill 100 million people and not experience a massive shift in worldview.  This absurd world, manifested in cynicism and skepticism, was reflected in art in two ways, nothing makes sense not even art, or clinging to the elements of art as the only pure constants on earth.  One vital part was left out, God.  I have found that when I am in one of these situations, as an artist, God will allow me making art to bring His peace and understanding to my situation.
