Petr Lenda is a local (Sebastopol) artist whose work is much sought after. He says:

"A work of art has to live. This means the artwork is speaking, conversing, and creating emotions. A painting, drawing, or sculpture may be a dead piece of paper, canvas, of wood, clay, or other material, may be nice and cute – a decent craftsman’s work. But an artist has to do more! He or she certainly has to know his craft. Often good craftsmanship is the beginning of the artist’s work, but in the course of time that is not enough. An artist has to have it. That may be his gift, wisdom, or know-how given to him by God or nature enabling him to vitalize his work, imparting the it, inserting life into dead material. With the imparted it, all art will talk to you, converse, and be understood. It may force you to return to the artwork once or many more times, perhaps just for a short chat or long conversation or a deep thought about life."
