About this blog:
Years ago, my sister and I went to see the Darjeeling Limited in theater. Afterwards, we were talking about the movie and about our love for creating art. We shared a similar problem: we put our art last to the business of our lives and thus hardly ever made time to create anything. My sister suggested that we make a commitment to create a piece of art every week. She jokingly said "Can we agree to that?" in reference to the line Owen Wilson used repeatedly in the movie.
Although I tried at first to stick to our commitment, I've lapsed into not making time to create. I'm hoping this blog will help me rededicate time to that purpose.

I'm finally reading a book I've been meaning to read for awhile called "It Was Good" Making Art to the Glory of God." I'm only a few pages in and I'm already inspired and encouraged. The first section is about God's goodness and how it compels artists to express it in a broken world:
"His common grace extends to every sphere of life and reaches all of our senses--the crunch of leaves during a walk on a crisp fall day, the tang from the first sip of a robust cabernet, the initial peek at waves through dune grasses, the whiff of chocolate chip cookies cooling in the kitchen, the crush of a black velvet dress on a starlit night, the song of a bird on a winter morning, the warmth of mashed potatoes with gravy, the curve of a new mother's breast, the fragrance from a bank of honeysuckle in bloom, the pudgy cheeks of a toddler--all of these things betray God's righteous hedonism and romp under the umbrella of His ultimate goodness as a covenant keeping King."
