What does it mean to be a {Re}Creational artist? 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 our life has given us the opportunity to be so much more.
We are mothers/fathers, wives/husbands, teachers, tutors, volunteers, party planners, vacation planners, PTO presidents, dance moms, chefs... the list goes on. The many hats we wear would fill Mary Poppins bottomless carpet bag.
A {Re}Creational Artist recognizes that his/her ultimate design and purpose is to love God, love others and to be loved (Matthew 22:37-39). So art remains one of his or her passions, but it is never her first love. Because, at the end of all things, it is our relationships (not our recreations) that define the fullness of our existence.
