Why Art?

I deeply admire artists - who embody self-expression and creativity, and artisans - who exemplify dedication and skill.

As a business professional, art in the conventional sense has never been a stated requirement in my job descriptions. But yet I have found the pursuit of art to be an integral part of my career achievements. In my own life, I strive to approach everything I do with a sense of artfulness - whether that’s in my hobbies, professional pursuits, or roles as a husband and parent. Embracing the perspectives of both artist and artisan has brought sustained, higher levels of performance in my professional life and more joy in my personal life.

I have explored a variety of experiences, and the pursuits have taught me unexpected lessons that I might not have learned otherwise. Part of the reason for making this website is to reflect on some lessons of perspective, emotional intelligence, and creativity.

Regardless of what you do professionally (I do this), exploring the arts can have powerful impacts on your life. And the lessons along the way can bring depth to your wisdom overall.
