Art
Art is, by nature, a seduction
Beauty is eroticism of the soul
To love a work of art is to succumb to temptation
Infatuation with the artist is as inevitable as teenage lust
Hands gently holding the camera
As a mother to her child
The eye looking intently through the lens
Both are windows of the soul
In the beginning, God created, and said it was good
We long to be naked again, and unashamed
Pornography is in the eye of the beholder
Innocence and experience are two sides of the same
Worship, like sex, is both selfless and selfish
Pleasure is no more sinful than Puritanism, maybe less
Creation declares the glory of God without words
This verse is beautifully recorded in sacred scripture
To create is to undress oneself in front of others
How could we not appreciate an artist’s body of work
Everyone is someone else’s muse
Voyeurism and exhibitionism are like husband and wife
There is no shortcut to deification
Perennialism naturally leads to Catholicism
We foolishly eat from the tree of knowledge, even outside the Garden
It takes a lifetime to create a masterpiece, eternity to perfect it
Art is, by grace, a sacrament
Beauty will save the world
The tragedy of life is not to die without accomplishments
It is to waste time on entertainment instead of making ourselves a work of art
