Back in 2010, some
old rock art was discovered in Australia.
No, I am not
referring to a mint condition KISS album cover from the 70’s.
I’m talking about a
fragment of cave wall displaying a pair of birds…
Birds that actually became
extinct about 40,000 years ago!
Well, you know what
this means, don’t you?
Kids have been
driving parents up the wall with their wall art, like, FOREVER!
No, actually it
means that the desire to create art has been around forever. As in,
it is hardwired into our DNA.
And that is why my
head nearly pops off whenever I hear adults claim that they are not creative.
Not possible.
As Lady Gaga would
say —
“Baby, you were
born this way.”
PROMPT: Get in touch
with your inner cave child — they are YOUR walls, after all! Visual artists —
practice some primitive art. Writers — a cave kid protagonist would be
Flintstone fantastic!
