One of One Print

the story We are born originals. The problem, as St. Carlo Acutis observed, is that most of us die as photocopies. As an artist, I sell prints of my work. Some of them are timed releases, some are limited editions, and some are open editions (available all the time). I sell a lot of them, but they’re all really just fancy photocopies. And none are worth as much as the original. Nothing beats an original. Sadly, too often we settle for being photocopies. This is not a call to stand out for the sake of standing out, or to pretend to be something you’re not. It’s about having the courage to be more of who you are. It’s a reminder that safety should not be our highest virtue. You are free to opt for the safe path. Most people do. But you will not be able to escape the gnawing sense of dissatisfaction, the quiet desperation, the ever-present sense in your soul that there’s more to life, and this ain’t it. Maybe fear is a smokescreen keeping you from becoming all God created you to be. Maybe your example of standing out from the herd will be the spark that lights the way forward for someone else, giving them courage to be brave, too. Is any of this safe? Hell no. Of course not. But it’s the only way to feel alive. product details This colorful artwork by Jason Kotecki comes in a variety of sizes. 20"x20" Gallery Canvas.
