… is someone who truly appreciates the beauty, work, origin, style, design and purpose of a product without having to ask…..”What is it?” The only time I answered that question, was when a young boy stopped to admire a painting I had completed of a very colorful fish. My response to his question was to further engage him in conversation, pique his interest, get him excited about art and have him tell me what the object was. After he carefully examined the painting, he told me it was a fish like his at home who had eaten his other fish. I just smiled. He was happy with his observation and seemed to enjoy the painting. And isn’t that what art is all about………joy?
