“Every artist dips their brush in their own soul, and paints their own nature into their pictures.” – Henry Ward Beecher. The ones who are the facilitators of the art we hold so dearly should be appreciated. Why do we wait so long to show love to the ones who are the embodiments of art themselves? I believe artists should be treated like flowers; water them, give them positive affirmations, and give them the space to shine. This flower I’m soon to introduce is one of my favorite people and artists. I was given the honor of meeting this beauty, and even though I was nervous, I must admit that I was a bit internally starstruck and elated to be in her presence. She had the vibe and personality of someone I’ve known my whole life, and I hold those types of interactions with my fellow artists closely. Ariette Bahta, the name of the artist, friend, and human being we have always needed. Ariette Bahta is a MultiMedia Artist whose work is an embodiment of self expression and love. I will never forget the first day I came across Ariette’s work, it was a day to remember. Ariette’s work is exuberant and outdistancing. I hope that we all take a moment to appreciate the flowers we are surrounded with, these flowers will grow into the garden we all love to marvel at and photograph.
