Re: Tool Chest Contest Winner is Selected

To the critics I say this-

As an artisan I have no need for the critic, I create for myself and others to enjoy, I care not for the critic. My passion is in the process, in the doing of something worthy of my time. In seeing some others work I am delighted in each and every detail. As I gaze upon the works I wonder about the thoughts of the artist as he crafted his work. It matters not the how and whether I would use it or not, it wasn't made for me. To say it is not something I would make is to say what, that I am not talented or creative enough to do the same.

I would delight to be associated with any of the works shown. The craftsmanship is awe inspiring. In each and every one can be seen a desire to do something not done before. It's enlightening to see so many with the courage to take it to the next level. To truly be creative, I say Bravo to all.

The critic needs the artist, for what would he have to critisize. Yet, the artist can always create that which pleases, whether it be for others or just for themselves.

Yet do I critisize?
