kelsey - art participation

If art offers a look in to the holy and helps us see God then can art be considered a form of worship? Or possibly is it more enlightening to make art instead of just viewing it? Van der Leeuw claims that art is made to be interacted with and I think that creating it would be the ultimate form of interaction. When I draw or create forms of art I feel that it is in some way an act of worship. My participation in the experience of crating art as well as my experience interacting with the forms and image seems to be to be a closer more personal interaction than viewing the art.
