Art is Hope

What is life without Art? Empty? Lacking in enthusiasm? -

Life without art is quite obviously dull and colorless. Bland is the world denied the

rainbow of shades produced by the visual arts. Why should one care? Imagine a book

without pictures - what would children read . . . how would they imagine? Art IS, as said,

​the color of life. Paintings, sculpture, all genre of art tells of existence . . . of personal, as

well as, universal hopes, dreams and ambitions, etc. The visual arts grant vision to an

often directionless society.


​Think of a framed photograph. Why should one invest in its acquisition? Well, BEAUTY 

nourishes the soul. It grants an instant high, a pleasure response, that is deep and

sincerely felt. Nothing can replace that lasting serene and euphoric memory. And . . . 

what is memory? Tis but images seen, enjoyed and catalogued in your heart and mind's

repository. Art is pleasure. Art is protest. Art IS a visual statement. One can read a piece

of art a million times and garner a thousand different meanings.


​Art is mood. It is a chameleon constantly altering in its impression - as the sensitivity or

emotions of the viewer shift so does a creative piece's interpretation. Art is then

psychology, science and beauty. It touches all we are, everything we encounter with its

vibrancy of language. In addition, there is no right answer to choosing or appreciating

a visual piece. If you love it, then you have spoken with it; you have conversed with the

essence of the artist. The best to you, therefore, when you voyage through a museum.

​May you come upon many lands and perhaps stand awhile and pitch a tent. For Art is 

​an adventure - art is life.
