I'm not a fan of organized or institutionalized religion. Or maybe religion in general, at least the way I see it practiced and imposed today. So I really liked this article in that it presented a case in which religion was taken as I think it should be--personally, a connection between the created and if he/she exists, the creator. There's no mention of attempted conversion, no call to arms, no blasting other religions. Religion--Judaism specifically-- makes the artist happy, she feels she has found herself in it, plain and simple. And even in her religious art she merely expresses how she feels, and others are welcome to find something in it, spirituality maybe, or not. They have the option of just appreciating it as art. No more, no less.
