Willis Sanders HeARTist Statement Summer 2019 During myjourney as a developing ARTist, I discovered that ART is in the HeART. This inspirational and creative thinking led me becoming a Servant HeARTtist. Since the HeART is considered the center of our emotions, the creation of my current series is reflected in my spiritual expressions of past, present and future life experiences. These abstract expressions of varied bold lines, colors, textures and shapes have unique meanings to me and the viewers. My sole purpose is to connect the viewer with my HeART in a way that will develop and maintain the continuous flow of positive energy for inspiration and encouragement. Revisions of previously and newly created realistic ART now also include the HeART symbol.Even after winning 72 ribbons from juried shows and with limited formal training, I continue to be inspired by God (Howgreat thou HeART) and I always give thanks to Him with a grateful HeART. I am also very thankful to all who appreciate my HeARTand see the meaning of being creative in expressing Hope, endurance, Admiration, Restoration and Trust to all people. Therefore “Sharing Time,Talents and Treasuresis the HeART of a purposeful life”
