It is no mistake that art shows what is going on in the world.  Artists are and have always been the thinkers, the activists, the doers, and the explorers.  Artists push the boundaries, explore and dream.  Art can be honest, show our realities, can be uncomfortably graphic and harsh.  Yet art is a life-skill; aspects of art help us decorate our houses and surroundings, beautify and enrich our minds. Art impacts us without our even realizing it. To limit art is to put limits on our thinking and expression.
