One
of the things that many great artists will tell you is that they often believe
their art comes from some place other than themself. Painters will talk of how
the painting somehow seems to paint itself. Sculptors talk of freeing the
sculpture from within the rock where it's been imprisoned. Writers talk of
being surprised at how a story turns out, at where the characters end up going.
And many, many artists are certain that it is God's Spirit that guides their
hands as they work. Great art, like great spirituality, involves trusting what
God can do, not just what we can.
