Anyone can learn how to render anything. Art is a human spirit expressing oneself via pigment, instruments, words, etc. And hopefully the end result is evoked emotion. I do not decide to create, rather it is an uncontrollable passion. And I never let my conscious take control therefore allowing my subconscious to emerge. For years I did not want to share my creations with the public, for it would be revealing my soul. I now feel it is my duty, my obligation to share with my fellow man. To share is directly related to education. Education is a door to Culture. Culture is Art. Art is Expression. Expression is Spiritual.
