Art has the ability to present a place for us to pause and refresh our spirit, visually and/or audibly. It offers a refuge from the constant mind chatter that results from our often too busy lifestyles as well as calm the stresses we experience daily. Art brings both joy and a sense of peace to our living space or work space by reminding us of who our inner self truly is. May we all discover the unique inner tranquility that can be found in art.
