Defining a Word Through Fine Art

I'm using this blog post to bring attention to the fine art world on etsy by choosing one word and posting how different artists present it through their work. My inspiration this week came via a Facebook posting that was about joy. Here is the post,

"Every single day, no matter who you meet in the day - give joy to them. Give a smile, a compliment, kind words or actions, but give joy! Do your best to make sure that every single person you meet has a better day because they saw you. As you give joy to every person you meet, you bring joy to YOU. The more you can give joy to others, the more you will bring the joy back to you."

So, that being said, this week's word is ...

“JOY”
