The World of Water and Art

Throughout the history of man, the power of water has been worshipped in the form the deities who control the oceans, seas and rain. Through worship, mankind acknowledged the power of water to bring life and cause death. Water cleanses, refreshes and renews. Water is all around and is an integral component of all living things.

In many ways, water is much like art to the artist.  The artist sees art and inspiration all around.  Art is integral to who the artist is at a very primary level.  For the artist, art cleanses the soul, renews the spirit and gives life to the inanimate. Art flows from the artist in a spring of creativity sometimes in a cascade and sometimes as a quiet trickle.  We, like our ancestors, are moved by the power of water.

These few selections from Love-New-Artists demonstrate the inspiration of the world of water on the world of art.  

Enjoy the inspiration!
