Art as a Foreign Language

I have been creating Art forever, but until recently I didn’t let it take the space it needs in my life. It’s never enough, but it used to be relegated to the broom closet, and now it has a room in the house . My “real” job was to teach a Foreign Language. Lately, while musing about art, I’ve come to realize that those two disciplines have a lot more in common that I ever realized.
