Art is everywhere...

Stretched Screen
Austin Nichols

"Art is everywhere,
except it has to pass through
a creative mind."
Louise Nevelson

The Trinity Art Blog has been viewed in
113 countries (most recently- Mongolia)
and this is post #101!


     Life is about deadlines... one of the ironies of art; only in art does an execution bring life. Of course, no one enjoys deadlines, and there are in my mind four categories of people-

     1. Those who finish early
     2. Those who finish on time
     3. Those who finish late
     4. Those who do not finish

So, one of my tasks as an educator is to help students understand there is an appointed time to finish, because the 'finishing of something' speaks to our integrity.


Here are a few examples of those who finished this week:
