What Is Art To You?

To me I see art as the expression of things that you feel yet you cannot see or things that you feel but aren’t able to express in words. Art is my outlet, it’s what makes me who I am. Sometimes I just wake up with the weight of the world on my shoulders and the way I feel is something that I can’t get down into words. That is when I grab my paint brush and the colors express it for me. It comes straight from my mind so smoothly and it slowly appears on my canvas speaking in silent words. Art is also my escape. A lot of times I can’t comprehend why things happen in this world, or why people do things, or say things. My life gets stressful from the constant “every day life.” That is when I must sit and write to just simply enjoy life in my head and relax as the world quiets and all I hear is my subconscious mind.

Art is my life, it’s the air I breathe. It’s in the sounds I hear, my beliefs, my family. It’s in the music I love and make. Art is me. I express all I see, feel, experience, understand. It’s my hates and loves. I see it as my life support, what I need to live. I turn my life sorrows and pain into my art, my negativities feed my souls fire. I am not in your head, I am only in mine. But I do know that we all come together on this website because we understand that one word…Art. My Big Question, WHAT IS ART TO YOU?

The Unique World of Intrinsic Expression: A Letter from the owner G.Cornwall

A letter from the owner: Gene marie

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by this page, and supporting the website. We are getting ready for our relaunch and our fresh new 2007 year! It’s March and we’re ready to inspire, create, and change this world!

I woke up today, a normal day but I began to be reminded of why I started Intrinsic Expression. As you are aware we all have our talents, and we all choose how we want to use our talents. Some use it wisely, others not so wisely. I realize that there are less students who have someone to support them when they have a mind of an artists. There are less classes for them to take in school and it is hard when so many tell you that you can’t make money as a photographer, as an artist or you simply wont’ make it in the music business. Sometimes we get pulled in the wrong direction trying to prove something rather than change something.

However, I and many others on Intrinsic choose to use there talents for a good influence, and I am looking forward to unite with all of you to be a strong and powerful force of change, inspiration and creation. I have been searching for a lot of musicians, and writers, film makers, and artists that reflect such beauty and talent that I know is scattered through out the whole world. I am proud to say I have met, so many inspirational artists of all shades and hues. I have met many like myself knowing that we are all meant for something greater. I hope to meet more of you, and if that is you please feel free to contact me. The website will be up in running again very soon! I look forward to playing your music, supporting you and your work.

We are looking to start new ways to raise money for all of you, while expressing the world of the artists! If you’re interested in planning an event and interested in performing for an event please contact me as well! If you’re interested in collaboration show…wonderful email me.
