"I have chosen clay because it is the material which I can best speak;
through which can best explore the philosophical concerns of life ~
the fragility of the human condition."
Christine Boswijk
All humans are born into this world with individual gifts and talents. These beings carry messages that have been imprinted upon their souls. As they unfold and hone their specialties their stories unfold. Through experience they learn to discern if they are to be a potter, a baker, or a candlestick maker.
Creativity abounds within the hearts of all peoples. Once unleashed. it is very powerful individually and collectively. There is a strong need for each person to cultivate a way to display personal creativity. Everyone can find their strength and nurture it accordingly.
Foolishly, creativity is too often singularly linked with crafts which is really morphing the expansive portion of individual art. We must recognize the ingenuity of a business man successfully creating an unheard of business plan. If we look, we can discover the artist within. Creativity becomes an art when a person perfects his or her abilities to design, visualize, and produce the magic in their minds.
Life is an adventure and we are personally equipped with the tools we will need. Unfortunately, there is no instruction manual. Living in the experience is all hands on!
