What is Hidden Art?

“Whatever it is, surely art involves creativity and originality. Whatever form art takes, it gives outward expression to what otherwise would remain locked in the mind, unshared.”

The quote above is from The Hidden Art of Homemaking by Edith Schaeffer. This book has inspired me to live my entire life as worship to God in every aspect, even down to washing dishes.

Hidden art is something creative inside me, a tiny seed that had been patiently waiting for its time to sprout, now pushing life up through the crust of the earth. The roots are beginning to permeate every bit of soil, the little tendrils feeling for a deep source of water, a wellspring.

To me, living has become art. It is beautiful, profound, and ever-changing, and the colors are quite vivid.
