ART HEALS, DO YOU BELIEVE?

I attended the reception for the Southern Nevada Museum of Fine Art last night, where one of my paintings, Edge of Eternity proudly hangs as part of the juried exhibition.

I noticed that the lack of air conditioning had almost no effect on the visitors that came to partake in the art. Some fanned themselves, others went and searched for a cool breeze, but overall most stayed to take in the powerful exilir of the art.

The human spirit prevails above all else, love of course being the most powerful virtue...came through last night up until the last guest left...it amazes me how art brings people together...for me just being amidst all the creative energy is very healing...I am at my happiest when I am creating art and in art...what else is there anyway but love and art?
