"An artist is not special. An artist is an ordinary person who can take ordinary things and make them special. An artist looks at a juice bott le , an egg car ton or a newspaper and sees something valuable in them.” Ruth Asawa
“No work of art is more important than the Christian’s own life, and every Christian is called upon to be an artist in this sense. He may have no gift of writing, no gift of composing or singing, but each man has the gift of creativity in terms of the way he lives his life. In this sense, the Christian’s life is to be an art work. The Christian’s Life is to be a thing of beauty in the midst of a lost and despairing world.” Francis Schaffer, Art and the Bible
