Transcript of Art is a way of knowing.
I love life very much. I was born in a lovely Christian family. There is a clear calling which guide me to the needs. Since I was young, I have been curious about who I am, and what my mission is. I am searching the answer from Social Work, Psychology, Education and even Theology. However, it’s not enough. Then, visual arts has entered my heart and I realize that I can express myself by arts such as painting or photographing. I believe that Art is a way of knowing.
One day, when I saw the picture on the Internet, I started crying out of control. --------------------------------- Description: The girl drew ‘a mom’ on the floor, took off her shoes and put her shoes carefully. Finally, she lied in mom’s arms, then fell asleep.
Self-
searching
After seeing the photo of an orphan, I have an idea to drew the painting. ---------------------------------- In a cold night, I was waiting for the voice from God. What could I do for the orphan? I felt how lonely the orphan… Surely, If I could, I really want to give her a big hug.
Self-
searching
I didn’t know which key can open my future, and I am still searching. The keys and the locks aren’t matched each other. And, the net of the background made me stressed. I almost can not breathe.
Self-
searching
Until I met God on the grass, I heard some voice from him. I enjoyed and listened.
Equip Myself
At the same time, When I was in work, I observed some children express themselves completely by painting more than speaking. Also, I was interested in discussion with them about their art works. Always, I found some story in their arts work.
Equip Myself
God remained me to give hands toward the needs.
“Glory to God in the highest heaven , and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests” Luke 2:14 Art therapy is not only for making relationship with others, but exploring myself.
Equip Myself
Even though I am not an expert at arts, I desire to learn and try more other materials.
