Painting

The more I strive to become the painter, the more I see that I am merely the brush

Drawing 

I love to draw … for me, a sketch carries more meaning and memory than a photo.

 Making Things

As a creative, I take joy in shaping all kinds of materials into things
that are useful, meaningful & delightful to others.

Making is more than the physical act of building. It’s dancing, it’s sewing. It’s cooking. It’s writing songs. It’s silk-screening. It’s breaking new trails both literally and figuratively.
— Adam Savage, Every Tool's a Hammer: Life Is What You Make It
 
Whenever we’re driven to reach out and create something from nothing, whether it’s something physical like a chair, or more temporal and ethereal, like a poem, we’re contributing something of ourselves to the world. We’re taking our experience and filtering it through our words or our hands, or our voices or our bodies, and we’re putting something in the culture that didn’t exist before. In fact, we’re not putting what we make into the culture, what we make IS the culture. Putting something in the world that didn’t exist before is the broadest definition of making, which means all of us can be makers. Creators.
— Adam Savage, Every Tool's a Hammer: Life Is What You Make It
Whenever we bring order out of chaos, whenever we draw out creative potential, whenever we elaborate and ‘unfold’ creation beyond where it was when we found it, we are following God’s pattern of creative cultural development.
— T. Keller, Every Good Endeavor: Connecting Your Work to God's Plan for the World
