The Being behind the aura

Making art keeps the artist in spiritual desperation.  No true artist has ever stood in their studio and believed “I” am up to the task.  All cultures have designated art to the divine realm and rightly so; making art is not like making a Ferrari or even an artificial heart, making art is akin to making—A Heart—and no human can do that.  All artists know the reality of this and will claim a transcendent spiritual aura to their studio practice.  However, it is my firm belief that the most sincere artist, those that are the truest to themselves and their work, secretly or publically acknowledge a being behind the aura, that Being is God, I AM.  Once that threshold of faith has been crossed you are forever transformed and above all else seek His blessings on you and your work.

NOTE: Altar building has become for my family and me the only way to truly and sincerely acknowledge God’s transforming power, Divinely entering, intersecting, and intervening in our lives.
