Taking Time

We find, have, take, make, and can be just in or out of time; it passes quickly or slowly and sometimes stands still; we often have too much or too little of it on our hands and now and then we just don’t know where it has gone.

When I was growing up there were two things that fascinated me: Art and Science. I knew at an early age that I would follow either one of those paths as I traveled down the fantastic road of life.

Earlier this year, I wrote my first art blog here at the Red Rock News. I stressed the importance of the arts in education, society and life in general. I asked you as individuals to keep art alive and well. I begged you to consider the art we take for granted in our everyday lives. I asked you to look at your walls, community and even your technology to see how it is a part of everything...
 
The Art of Beauty
Written by Kelli Klymenko   
Thursday, 14 July 2011 08:54
What makes art beautiful and who decides what fine art is and what makes fine paperweights? I’ve had seemingly endless debates on this subject throughout the course of my life. Too often, artists and non-artists look at a painting and say, “My three-year-old could paint that.” Then there are also those three-year-olds who have been dubbed creative geniuses who finger paint in the...
