“The only thing I know is that I know nothing.”

“For we can only know that we know nothing, and a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.”

Neither quote is easy to document, yet they contain a nugget of wisdom. The more we think we know, the more we realize there is much more to learn.

We are born perfect. We know this because the Bible tells us we are made in the image of God. Because we are already perfect, we don’t have to waste time trying to BE perfect.

We are all born artists. You only have to give a child a box of crayons and a piece of paper to see an artist at work. That child artist never abandoned us. She dwells inside waiting for us to release her.

There is only truth and our perception of the truth. Artists are experts at expressing perceptions.

We can only see what light reflects. Artists must understand the principles of light. They need to know how the human eye perceives objects reflected by light.

We all see the truth around us but perceive it in different ways. Artists can see the world as it is and communicate it to others.

Human beings were born to dream and to learn. Our perceptions are the dreams we create to make sense of the world. Artists articulate new ways to experience the world around us.
