This is the official welcome letter to the CULVRE site from us to all of you. I would like to thank you for taking the time to click a link or type this into your browser and check out this site that I’ve poured many hours into already, and can’t wait for the many many hours that are to come. This is a place to share the hard work that individual artists and creators have put into their own creations that deserve to be showcased and recognized.
A place where we can all come together and support each other, while also maybe learning something new.
One thing I love about social media, is the ability to see different parts of each others lives and journeys. You may never pick up a paint brush in your life, or a camera, or a guitar. But you can go to a website, or someone’s instagram and see what they can create through that instrument they’re handed.
What I’ve always loved about art is the feeling. How each individual thing can make someone feel something completely different.
I grew up a dancer. And whenever I would perform a dance, or watch others perform, I would always watch it or perform it with the intent of wanting to feel something. The best dances in my opinion, weren’t necessarily the ones with the most difficult choreography or the fanciest tricks. But the ones that pulled on your heart in a different way. It’s story telling. It’s taking what the choreographer produced, putting it in motion, and portraying it in a way that shows the audience something they can feel. Because it’s literally art. It’s a way of seeing, feeling and living.
That’s just one example of course. And at the risk of making this post a novel, I will leave it at that.
If you are here just as a viewer. Welcome. I’m so happy you’re here and that you are wanting to explore this beautiful world and things that are created in it.
If you are a creator. Welcome. I hope that you find this as a safe, welcoming environment that you can share your work for others to see. It’s very easy to submit your work, just check out the submissions page! :)
I’m also always looking for guest writers to write posts for the blog! If you are interested in that, shoot me an email and let’s chat!
