Everybody's life is a personal puzzle. When we are born all the pieces are in some unknown place. We have only a limited lifetime to find the pieces, put them together and see the complete picture of the puzzle, which is ourselves. By seeing that blueprint we are able to understand the Universe, a source of our Life. The image of us is an exact reflection of the infinite image of the Universe. Sometimes there are missing pieces of the puzzle we never knew existed. We need to create them to connect all the pieces together and that is the birth of ART. This is the excitement of CREATION. This is the beauty of ART. This is the purpose of LIFE.
