The Making is the Thing.

Art is a long and winding road that leads to who knows where; tumbling-scratching-swishing-recycling-painting-drawing-gluing-developing-designing-uncovering-discovering-layering; a lot of action words are involved in the creation of art objects. The excitement of creating is the thing I love, the result is secondary. It is a beautiful almost-spring-Saturday-morning and I am going to go MAKE some ART!
