You can be an artist

Human beings *need* to be creative !

Almost everyone I know or have ever met has a “creative” aspect to themselves, often without awareness of that label. Everyone has gifts that can contribute to the overall beauty, creativity, and well being of the rest of us and I think we are all gradually coming to realize this. Children need the arts in school even if they never become so-called “artists.” The experience will enhance their lives and help them find their own form of creativity whether it be in business, economics, science, parenting, medicine, teaching, or being a really great plumber!

When you dance, you are, for that moment, ‘a dancer’, whether you’re a trained one or not. When you’re playing basketball you are, in that moment, ‘a basketball player’, whether you’re in the NBA or not.

Seth Godin says anyone can be an artist. Without even becoming an artist:

Art isn’t only a painting. Art is anything that’s creative, passionate, and personal. And great art resonates with the viewer, not only with the creator.

I believe that everyone - whatever their experience - can reveal the ability to create their unique look so it could impress, affect and inspire people around you. Every detail of your outfit, every line and shade of your makeup look can represent your vision.

Style is a simple way of saying complicated things.
