Art is our heartbeat...our humanity...our God-given genius. Steve, I missed this earlier, and I'm sorry I did. What a great sentiment! When my oldest was still being hsed, he was introduced to G. K. Chesterton through a book about his writings on the arts, /Christian Imagination: GK Chesterton on the Arts. /This book, followed by Chesterton's actual writings, followed by Madaline L'Engle's /Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and the Arts/ and several other books that I couldn't keep up with really formed the basis for his artistic consciousness. He's a writer, a filmmaker, a musician, a puppeteer, and an actor. What I've learned from him is that God gave us the desire to create, just as He created. As puppeteers/artists, we create our own worlds, people, animals, etc. Remarkable!
