  Subject: [Digital BW] ART and LIFE


  I would like to make a case for taking art "out of the box" as defined by
  galleries and museums and schools.

  Art can be practiced anywhere, anytime by anyone willing to make the extra
  effort: to see, to listen, to feel, to give, to paint, to sing, to
  photograph...

  examples: 

  I walk down the street and see a tiny flowering plant surviving between the
  cracks in the sidewalk...the art of seeing

  I take a photograph of this plant and post it on the web...the art of giving
  the art of seeing

  I see a child with a skinned knee sitting on the curb alone crying
  quietly....I sit down and offer a bandaid and show the tiny brave flower in
  the crack to the child...I show the child how to make a picture on the
  sidewalk with a rock as a crayon... the art of giving, the art of caring,
  the art of teaching, the art of listening and the art of seeing.

  I turned to art as a refuge for myself for all the pain I absorbed from my
  daily interactions with patients. Over many years of practice in many
  settings, I hope I have begun to learn  the art of healing...and it isn't
  antibiotics or surgeries or transplants. These things become the art of
  healing only when given with a large dose of caring...the art of listening,
  seeing, feeling, giving.

  Living art makes the world a better place...so practice art: go see and take
  pictures and share the images and yourself with us.
