Hal Halli-new Artist In Faa

Life is an art form. And art is life. It may sound like a lame platitude, but it is true, no?
We are the authors of our own lives. Perhaps it can be said that we paint on a canvas of circumstances and conditions that shapes our characters, our destinies.

Art is life. The need to create is innate, instinctual. Whether we write, paint, cook, parent, build, sing, teach, heal, plant a tree or leave etchings on cave walls, we humans have a drive to leave our mark, to proclaim, “Hey, I was here. I lived.” It’s a spiritual thing really.

To best do this, we must learn to live in the moment and seize each day, and count our blessings and be grateful and love. And I believe that through this simple ritual, we may persevere and manifest a few masterpieces in our lives.

From florals and landscapes, to cityscapes and abstract work, through my photography and some poetry, I do my best to say, “Hey I was here.” …….the process continues.

Good intro...
I'm provoked to comment, though: Is there a chance that your name is somewhat repetitively redundant?
Sometimes this is not by the "formal" process of given names, but by the use of a last name as a nickname.
My dad was "Scottie" to many of his friends. Thus, to some, he was "Scottie Scott".
Was your recursion assigned by your parents as your legal name, or was it evolved in the same way?

Just a curious random question...
But if art is life, and life is art, then our names are a thread in that tapestry, right?
