The Joy of Art

I deeply admire artists - who embody self-expression and creativity, and artisans - who exemplify craftsmanship and skill. I have tremendous respect for those who dedicate themselves to their craft, whatever form it takes.

In my own life, I strive to approach everything I do with a sense of artfulness -whether in my hobbies, professional pursuits, or roles as a husband and parent. Embracing the perspectives of both artist and artisan has brought greater meaning to my results, and more joy to my experiences.

I have explored a variety of arts, 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 lessons of perspective, emotional intelligence, and creativity.

Regardless of what you do professionally (I do this), exploring the arts can have a powerful impact on your overall personal development. Artistry is humbling, energizing, skill-building, and ultimately life-affirming.
