A lifetime ago, I studied at a prestigious ART school. My ART education left me confused and not sure as to where my process fit in the ART world.
Many years later, I have concluded that my purpose as an artist and thereby the ART, goes beyond just making the audience appreciate beauty, or representing what is or is not real, or feeling something — it is to make the audience think. ART is a solitary pursuit. The artist is an autonomous creator, laboring freely and consciously to create something from nothing. Usually when one labors, the main motivator is compensation, but I do not believe it should be the primary motivation, especially where the creative process is concerned.My personal ART making process is a journey without a map. The end rarely is apparent at the beginning, and consists of many revelations along the way leading to a satisfying conclusion.
