What drives an artist?

Hello, bloggers -- Richard Speer here, your Blog editor...

Katherine Treffinger is an Oregon-based painter whose work I have enjoyed for nearly seven years now.  I am the proud owner of one of her paintings, entitled Aztec, a picture of which is below.

Katherine has a beautiful website:

www.katherinetreffinger.com

...and she has started a blog, called Treffinger Daily, which you can find here:

http://katherinetreffinger.blogspot.com

As a new project on her blog, Katherine is asking artists what drives their creativity.  She posed this question recently to Matt, who was happy to respond.

Katherine has posted that response on her blog.  I’m sure you will enjoy Matt’s remarks, along with the responses of the other artists who have pondered this question, which is so elemental to those of us who make and love art.

Many thanks to Katherine for initiating this tought-provoking project.

I would encourage members of the Matt Lamb Blog community to check out Katherine’s blog, and I extend a warm welcome to members of her blog community visiting our online community here at the Matt Lamb Blog.

Warm wishes,
Richard
