Well, as an artist - I agree. i have theories about the true purpose of art and I definitely don't think "selling it" is it's true purpose. I am sorry that you found out the hard way, like I did. It seems to me that the powers that should not be have taken something that has a spiritual purpose and commidified it so that people won't know it's true power as a manifesting and healing tool. It is so powerful for that that they would not have big pharma if people knew today what they once knew in the past about I-Mag-I-Nat-ing - I have recently finally learned it and all these years of creating art were my training for becoming a psychic healer - pretty amazing really but not so in this material world that we presently find ourselves in. Blessings to you in your endeavors!

Oh, I agree. The purpose of art is definitely not to sell it, but — it is to share it — as a form of communication I can't necessarily put into words. In my own case, it is the expression of sacred geometry' the patterns in nature that are art in the own right but goes overlooked (by most) because we're so busy chasing after... something.
Alas, we seem to have left behind an age where artists had wealthy "patrons" who many it possible to pursue art.
After all these years, my art is largely my meditation and part of my overall mental health and wellness plan. So I fully believe in art as a healing tool.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment and feedback!
