(I love coming up with these titles ^^)

I just saw the DD from ~jonathanjames and had to think of something that has kept troubling me for quite a while. (`snowmask, you were so right to keep suggesting him)
Rather than bugging him about it, as he must be flooded by mails at the moment, I thought I'd just make it a journal entry.

What is it that drives people to make art?
I think it is the wish to create something. Be it like bearing a child, so focussed on creating something good and beautiful (the "classical" art); be it like a god, just as a way to express something, create something with meaning, something with a story of it's own.

Tell me what you think (and invite others to enter the discussion, or this will be a dead man's birthday party)
