Divine Art is Spiritual and a Joy of Bliss to Get Involved with it
Divine Art. If you say, it's a joy of bliss to get involved with it. Whether you're in the creative position or in the appreciation position. A human treasure talked about the difference between genuine divine art and ordinary art. (In all honesty, it was my younger brother who heard his story. He was a university student at that time.)The human treasure's name is Yoshikuni TAGUCHI (1923-1998), a master of makie. And his father was a prominent doctor. Because he could tell the name of patient's illness just by standing in front of patient's house. So he himself had some kind of inspiration. For example, he saw many ghosts in postwar Tokyo. With such a well-honed sensibility, he could see the lights in real divine arts. According to him, light is often invisible even in masterpieces. Above all divine arts are spiritual.
Divine Art Everywhere in Tokyo
Divine Arts are everywhere in Tokyo. Thankfully, most of them are lucky statues. You can often see lucky statues as you walk along the streets of Tokyo. Actually, those statues seem to have a mysterious power. They seem to remind pedestrians of something essential to them in the hustle and bustle of big cities. Luckily, one of them is a precious work by Taro Okamoto, a famous Japanese artist. Furthermore, at each of the many shrines, there is always a pair of guardian dog statues. In particular, the gods and beasts are the most familiar beings of Divine Art. They seem to remind pedestrians in the noise and bustle of a large city of something essential to them.

Infants' Innocence & Purity Creates Divine Art
As a child, I thought that the Holy Beast lived in a higher dimensional world. But when I grew up, I became to lose the idea. Happily, when my daughter was 11 months old, she instantly drew a beautiful horse. Therefore, I could recall my old precious childhood feelings. According to her, it was a beautiful iridescent horse in heaven.
When she was just one year old, this time she drew a snake. It was the cute snake she dreamed of.
The consciousness of innocent young children is easy to connect to the higher dimensional world. The child is the best creator with a soft mind. If you have children around you, it may be good to draw and play with them. Even if you have no children, it will be useful to remember the heart of the little child in your heart.
God Beasts Comes of Divine Art from the World of Gods to the World
Japan is connected with many gods. Therefore, many Japanese artists are inspired by the higher dimensional world. Consequently, inspiration comes over from the world of higher dimension to pure artists in Japan.Miwa KOMATSU（1984ｰ) is one of the artists who has recently received attention.
