    Art as Prayer

    “Without reflection, it isn’t prayer, it’s just art. I love art, but if you want to hear from the Divine Creator, you have to spend the time wondering and asking questions.” ~ Wendi

    Art and Fear

    “The scariest part about making art is that you are putting yourself out there and you feel naked and vulnerable. That’s why art for meditation isn’t for display. It’s just for you. It’s very personal.” ~ Wendi

    Quotes

    “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~ Howard Thurman
