But why did he advise us to wear art if we don&#8217;t consider ourselves to be art? \u00a0Why not create art if you aren&#8217;t up for the other two options? Maybe he considers anyone who makes art as being art? I don&#8217;t know, truly, but I do like the sentiment that art should be a part of your every day, either in who you are and how you present yourself to the world or in what you show off to the world. Just a simple thought today as we wrap up a holiday weekend here in the States and get ready to dive back into work. Think about what art and creativity you can bring to your Monday tomorrow. Make it a bright and inspirational day!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepolymerarts.com\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"blog Banner Ad 230x125\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/daveonline.net\/thepolymerarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-Banner-Ad-230x125.jpg?resize=230%2C125\" width=\"230\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; I love Oscar Wilde&#8217;s work.
