As we all know, :art\" and artist\" encompass more than paint and brush, and include artists of the written word. I believe your poem is general enough to praise artists of all ilks. It consist of 18 craft-fully chosen words spliced together to explain what \"art\" is. Loved it. - Phil A.

VERY TRUE UNCLE MICHAEL ~ In my case it would apply to Science which is both My Profession & My Passion !
SCIENCE is only created by SCIENTISTS (especially in the 21st century)
ALL SCIENTISTS are not CREATIVE !
In the past mAny things were discovered accidently Gravity ~ The Steam Engine ~ Mauve Dye ~ Polythene ~ Penicillin ~ Radioactivity ~ Stainless Steel ~ The Wheel etc etc. Today the breakthroughs are made by Teams of PhD\'s workin in LABS with millions of pounds of equipment ! Even PhD\'s can (occasionally) be creative. Thanks for Painting ~ very creative !
Blessings to YOU & YOURS

Oooh - what a picture - I wish I could take that broken down dwelling and make it into my country retreat - and as for your statement on art I really agree that not all artists have the gift of creating. A interesting posting my friend and thanks for sharing it.

Your image today reminds me of my own \'theme\' when i was a keen photographer. I would try to capture how nature gently re-took the ground which mankind abandons. I was often in derelict buildings with camera or in railway sidings.
Interesting last line from you today, i recall even a piss artist was able to leave quite creative channels across pavements in those late evenings of my younger days.

Very true Michael. We have had this discussion before and I think that we agree that art comes from within, as a lover of art, though not particularly knowledgeable, I like to be able to feel the artists presence within the artworks, as I do with yours.
Many art works are just wonderful copies of life that could have been taken by a camera, the artists are very skilled but is it art.
Equally I have seen photographs that look like a piece of art, art is so special that it must have an effect on the person looking at it.
This discussion goes on forever.

All through our working lives we looked forward to providing our minds and bodies with a weak-end after five days of pure joyous toil.
And now what do we have? Weak-ends for the rest of our days?
No way! i hear you say. These Saturdays are the days of harvest. Gathering in the richness of all life has reigned upon us.
What of Sundays I ask?
