Your artistry involves you intimately with the world around and beyond you. So your artistry involves profound but simple philosophical matters. As a human person, you are artful and philosophical, at the core of your being. Doorway to Artistry offers a playful, everyday philosophical approach necessary for life, integration, healing, and thriving in artistry. It reflects on the real and how we are involved with it, especially in our creative effort. In short, the real hospitably welcomes us, and in our artistry we reciprocate in noble courtesy. Human persons were made for this communion with the real. Find in this book a hospitable welcome to belong at home beyond where you are.
عن المؤلف
Martyn Smith is an American artist and printmaker based in Otley, West Yorkshire, UK. Martyn does commissioned work for people and their books, but he especially loves doing his own art, focusing on wild landscapes and areas of interest that people love, giving a contemporary feel to traditional landscapes. His childhood in Appalachia, his Christian faith, and his ‘Anglophilia’ influence his artistry. He has a background as a photographer and videographer: this was Martyn’s medium in his twenty years as the media manager for a charity in Otley.
