ARTIST AND ARTISAN
In Bali this distinction is often very blurred since many farmers paint,
many sculptors farm or have other jobs. Most walls are carved, most
houses have decorative motifs. Art is everywhere. To the Balinese the
act of creation of beautiful things is second nature. All the ladies of a
village will make the amazing decorations for temples, and the elaborate
offerings, thinking nothing of spending three days making things which
will be only used for a few hours.
