I believe we are all born with a bit of "The Artist" in our souls. As we grow it usually seems that our guardians and mentors make every effort to free our creative being. When we are very young some of the first things we are encouraged to do are draw, paint and produce form, color, movement, lines using any number of different types of mediums/media. The results of our efforts are typically treasured for many, many years to come. As we grow older, most of us find that our mind's concentrations are slowly and progressively diverted towards more mindful, (if sensible) areas. We ultimately become lawyers, teachers, truck drivers, and some dancers and singers are in there for good measure. There are so many wonderful paths to travel and either by choice or circumstances we each find our way.
