I believe art to be humans attempt to articulate gratefulness in
response to the mountains, the great rivers, the sun and moon, the plains and
earth and stars. But one soon knows that
no art can adequately satisfy the bar of gratitude the earth and heavens
raise. What are we to do? I have found there is but one solace for the
artist sitting in front of his creation; seeing past it to The Maker of the
heavens and the earth. I have found this
to be the greatest joy of my studio practice, and thankfully the Only reason
for it.
In that vein I find the offering of a beautiful hand made cup synonymous
to “the cup of cool water”, equally able to allow us to be in His image.
