Philosophy
It's an age old question. Does art imitate life, or does life imitate art?
I think that art imitates life, personally. You have to have a model for your art.
That is why it behooves us to get out and experience as much of life as is humanly possible. It keeps you well rounded, and gives an outlet for art ...which is the ultimate power... creation.
There is also that exposure to different viewpoints and opinions.
The other thing we never bespeak of, but is absolutely true, is that art is immortality. When you create something, it stays long after you are gone.
This thought is comforting after a certain age, and life experience.
You only get one life. Make it count. Make the art.
