Do you love getting a handwritten letter from a friend or an email? An email was written fast with minimal effort and short as possible to get point across and that's it. A hand written heart felt letter can reach and touch your soul and it may become a treasure for you to cherish rest of your life unlike an email you don't hestitate to delete with one click. Anything created without a heart, has no meaning no value. Art comes from the heart and computers have none.

Remeber one thing and one absolute truth about art, art comes from the heart and no computer will EVER match that. A computer may do anything and even create what might appear as art but it can not make it because in order to be creative and imaginative, your art must and always should come from the heart or it's called garbage. Computers create products- that's it. I am an Eggshell Sculptor. Remeber one thing and one absolute truth about art, art comes from the heart and no computer will EVER match that.
