“Art is the expression of the inner self. It is the human interpretation of the creator’s mastery. It is the translation of the subliminal into earthly transformations. Art is one of the few freedoms left to man. In that freedom, man’s creativity transcends the reality of time, space, and place. Art forms and expressions are omnipresent in nature, awaiting discovery and embellishment Nature provides us with multiple forms and media awaiting our re-creation, our translation and transformation from what is into new
resurrections for the joyous good of humanity.” - Amb. Edmunds
