What does it mean to be a {Re}Creational artist? We {re}create what we see, taste, and experience. We do this through pictures of sweet moments captured and shared with our friends. We enjoy the most delicious meal while out with friends or a loved one and simply must figure out how to make it at home. We see a quilt, a piece of art, or fabulous DIY project and simply must fashion one for ourselves.
We are all driven to create, or {re}create, on some level. It is a God-given desire to be co-creators with the creator of all things. However, we are also only recreational artists; because are created to be so much more. We have family, friends, and faith. We recognize that our ultimate design and purpose is to love God, love others and to be loved (Matthew 22:37-39). So art remains one of our passions, but it is never our first love. Because, at the end of all things, it is our relationships, not our recreations that define the fullness of our existence.
This is a blog for all of my fellow {Re}Creational artists. May we endeavor to become all that we were created to be.
