How Do You Choose?
The giving of gifts is for us as much as for the person receiving the gift. The act of giving results in our own well-being. People do things that make them feel good. We not only surround ourselves with people who make us feel right, happy, and appreciated we give gifts to those who do that for us. Gift-giving is an art in and of itself. When searching for that perfect gift one must consider the relationship with the receiver of the gift.
The thought of banning gifts or not giving gifts is actually a deterrent to the non-giver. Relationships are built and maintained on the emotional link between two people and if you never give a gift to a loved one you lose not only the value of the relationship but the time you spend trying to figure out the best gift. Giving is a reward in itself. So take some time and find the perfect gift. No chocolate-covered cherries here or gift baskets. No one really wants those and they send the message of I have no idea what you like.

Conclusion
Artists may not always look like they are with us and they may appear deep in thought or even bored but as a result of that inattentiveness, they are able to view the world in shapes, sizes, and colors. Creating their next design. Artists live in their minds and the creative side of the brain. they are always looking for ideas and manifest those from thought, smell, touch, taste, and the experience of it all. Creativity is a gift that comes within our essence. you cannot force the artistic part of you. It is there or it is absent. Art grows in the mind and the artist can take it to paper, clay, wood, or whatever item they use for their art. it is amazing.
