Enjoy this vlog of the 8th Commandment for Artists and Creative Professionals in our Ten Commandments for Artists series.

God values the art you create, and so should you, your audience and your patrons. The challenge for artists is how we find our inspiration from other artists. We need to see great works of art from today and from history. It will influence our work, but we must make it our own. We cannot be fully original. This is why we find the great artists making statements like these: Salvador Dali: “Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing.” Picasso: “Art is Theft”.
