Is Art Work?












Is art work? As I sit at my computer pondering this question other questions come to mind:

• Can something you truly enjoy be work?
• Can something that relieves all of the stress and tension of the day be work?
• Can creating something that can never be created again be work?
• Can something you have done and would do again for free be work?

On answering my own questions, I realized that I love art, would do it regardless and no in my opinion art is not work. I even enjoy the marketing, the networking and all of the other things that get people to look at my art. After all, what is art if no one sees it? Art should entertain. Art should inspire. Art should be fun.


Above are a few of my recent projects and be sure to check out my on-line galleries.

What is Art?

Many people have expressed many ideas about what Art is or is not. I personally think that any visual or physical endeavor that allows a person to be creative incorporates both craft and art. The craft portion provides the technical skill to utilize the artist's medium of choice whether it be painting, sculptor, photography, dance, acting or a host of other skills. The art comes in when the person adapts these skills to create something truly unique and awe inspiring.

Then comes the question, must an artist stick strictly to one medium or style to be successful? Must an impressionist never delve into realism? Must a sculptor never paint? Must a painter never photograph? For more than forty-years now I have delved into almost every artistic medium known, from watercolor to digital art to photographs. I believe the ability to create can take many forms and be applied to a multitude of mediums. We are no longer restricted in our methods and techniques by the availability of supplies and pigments. If you want it, someone has it available for sale.

To put it simply: Art is Creation, so get out your tool of choice and Create!

5X7 Original Watercolor: Blue Crab


Here is a new one. While down on the coast last week I had a chance to get some fried Blue Crab Claws and since the little critter tasted so good, I thought I would do a painting of one...LOL
