| Attending Art festivals are among my favorite | | | | masterpiece. The cost being a life time of sacrifice, |
| activities. I love to see what people have created | | | | drive, dedication and absolute devotion to his art. It |
| using raw materials as their basis for art. Stainless | | | | cost him everything and we as casual observers are |
| steel sheet metal, old rusty kitchen utensils, nails, | | | | able to witness it for the moment. It doesn't seem |
| cans, cloth, weathered wood, clay are just a sampling | | | | right somehow. We should have to sacrifice a little to |
| of what can be used to create beauty. | | | | appreciate the work of his hands. |
| I am a self proclaimed art lover, I have appreciated | | | | I love to see what people have created, what |
| from afar the miraculous creations of other peoples | | | | passions led them to certain media's, art forms or |
| down through all ages. When I visited the Louvre in | | | | materials. Are they from nature? Are they man |
| Paris, I spent four hours in the Egyptian artifact room | | | | made, do they keep their original shape or are they |
| alone, savoring everything detail of their fine | | | | barely recognizable. Picasso was a master at this |
| craftsmanship. I wept as I beheld Michelangelo's, The | | | | manipulative art form. |
| Dying Slave, and appreciated the cost of that | | | | |
