Fredeswinda Santos: Artist Artist's Statement Without passion, whats the point of living. Art is something that I cannot live without. When I get an inspiration or an image in my mind, I need to make it a reality. The process of creating is exciting, stimulating, and, at times, very spiritual. My experiences, other people's experiences, my dreams, and social issues are sources for my art. I am able to dissect and analyze my subject matter in a visual way which helps me to increase my understanding of human nature and, ultimately, myself. Sometimes, I just want to re-create an image that is beautiful. I do not believe in confining my art to only one medium, style, or perspective. I want to be able to grow as an artist and as a human being.
