There is only one direction for art to go and that is “out and about.” In other words, the sheer act of creating means something new has been sent forth into the world. It is a “given” which sometime, somewhere, will be “taken.” I think I love to paint and draw because once the mark is made on canvas or paper, it exists as something new and unique, to be shared as part of myself with others.
I painted a watercolor of this little guy from a photo I took at the aquarium at Columbus, Zoo in Ohio. It now hangs in my Granddaughter Indie's bedroom.
