I, William Lee Mathis, being of sound mind and body do admit to all who visit this site that I am an artist. I have spent time, beyond measure, dedicating myself to the construction and exploration of art. For my entire life, from the age I first held a pencil, I have loved nothing, and no one, as thoroughly as art.

Art is at once, my gift from god, and my curse from the devil. I can never be as happy as when I am crafting some work. All else is secondary, from my own emotional stability, to my desire to deal with others.

Art is a language, reaching from the heart of one person to touch those who stray near enough to the work to view it. No other language can communicate the heart so truthfully and no other language can so easily convey that which we all know to be true. I seek only to express my heart to others and if possible carry the work of others into the minds of the masses.

This truth and nothing more can I give to my visitors, that I, as a Slave to Art, swear to unceasingly dedicate myself to the creation, preservation, and expression of the language of art, throughout the world.
