âArt holds value and adds worth to a community, those who live there, work there, and visit,â local artist Kellene Turner recently expressed to me when I told her I wanted to pick her brain about all things art and community.
My earliest memories with art involve a blank piece of white paper and crayon. I tried hard to design the perfect oversized tree with tiny multi-colored flowers to grace its presence. My skill level never improved far beyond that. But my fascination for those with talents far greater than mine always lingered.
Once on a vacation I found myself buying a ticket to visit an art museum. It was slightly out of my comfort zone but the hours I spent there trying to understand the thoughts behind the pieces were meaningful. I was captivated by the pieces. On that same trip I attended a painting class, further proving my lack of skill with color and advancing my appreciation for those who make it look so easy.
