Let’s Make 2018 About Art
2017 was a rough year for this old world. So was 2016. So was... well, the list goes on. At Sporck
Tileart, we persevere through all the nonsense and we just keep making tiles. This year we made a
resolution, and that was to make 2018 a year of art, a year of create.
A wise man once said that “A culture is only as great as its dreams, and its dreams are dreamed by
artists.” Our mission this year, our boldest of resolutions in fact, is to make 2018 about art. We’re
going to turn a blind eye to the madness of our current socio-economic condition and focus wholly on
the joy of creating.We’re going to turn our backs on politics, on divisiveness, on all of the slander and
hate, and we are going to fill the world with the joy that comes from creating art.
And we encourage our followers and fans, family members and friends, to join us in this resolution.
2018; The Year of the Artist
This is our seventeenth year for Sporck Tileart, and we have long since exceeded our old benchmark of five-hundredindividual and unique tile designs. From backsplash tiles to bathroom tiles, fireplace
tiles, shower tiles, ceramic wall and floor tiles, we’ve made tiles to fit every need and purpose over the
last almost two decades. Mosaics, framed art, house numbers, plaques, family name signs, coats of
arms, custom art designs, countertop inlays, we’d almost like to say we’ve done it all, but “all” is an
infinite and paradox word in the mind of an artist.
In 2018, we are going to push the boundaries of what we’ve done and explore every avenue of creating
art. We will to travel to Norway to find inspiration for dozens more tile designs, inspiring ourselves
through experience and the visual amazement at the beauties that land has to offer. In 2018, we are
going to commit ourselves to our passion, our zeal for art.
We are going to heal the world with art.
Some think that a civilization lives and breathes through the artist. When a society’s art is flourishing,
that is the hallmark of a well-established civilization. When the art, and artists, are suffering and
sequestered, society suffers.
Our words will not fall on deaf ears when we say that our society is suffering right now. This is agreed
upon. Our resolution in this new year is to change all of that by making 2018 the year of create. We
want as many people as possible to enjoy our art this year as so many thousands of people across the
country and world have already done.
At Sporck Tileart, we want our art in every home in Leelanau and abroad, on mantelpieces, gracing
backsplashes, hung on walls, and propped on desks and writing tables. Let our art inspire you to make
2018 the year of create as it has inspired us to do the same. Let 2018 be the year we reconnect to the
spirituality that is art, the creative force of life, that all mankind can together share!
