Why have art, anyway?

For thousands of years, artists have dreamed up the future.  Take Leonardo, his flying machine that he sketched so long ago was just a dream, but became real.

Artists can make or break a civilization, and should aim to to create a better future and not a sour one.  Most artists can rise above the sadness of life and communicate something better, something to inspire. Something for you.

The art in KatyDid Art has been done for you, to inspire , stimulate, or simply relax with.  If you did not get to see the KatyDid Impressionist art, go to http://www.katydidart.com/2.html.

What is imagination, and what is real?

Let's start with "real"...  that is just something that people agree is real.  Even a concept such as "happiness" or "sadness" is real because we agree it is real.   You could be sad one morning and then change your mood into happiness -- you can, you know.   Focus on the good stuff.

Now, above all that "real" stuff, is a new plateau, a new "wavelength" -- of imagination, creative dreaming and beauty.  It is the thinking out of the box.  It is imagining your own future, a good one. And that is the stuff of which good futures are made.  This is deep, it is quite a knack, but try it.  Keep it positive.  Like, I did not know I could paint and squashed my desire to do so -- but here I am!
