Notes-thoughts-confessions-revelations-etc.

I had an influential Art History and Honors Humanities teacher say that art is the hub through which all life spokes pass in our wheel of life. Art is the central expression of our human experience—expressing what it is to be human in all ways, and like the facets of a cut diamond, adding light to our life experience.

Here is a record for myself to occassionally review and for anyone willing to read my notes: art is a process and a journey. I often find myself in a creative relationship to creating and being created in the art-making process as I dance with the artwork, sometimes wrestle, sometimes joyufully with surprise and wonder, other times, the process can be tiring and exhausting—like any relationship.

    Curiosity bred invention that became quite the creative journey and developed an understanding of human perception.
  • Another Type Of Seeing
    Building on my previous post and making a memoir of how this multi-exposure style developed.
  • Circumstances 1
    I, for one, need stability in which to create. Sometimes circumstances dictate the course. This is a short story of an art in development.
  • Circumstances 2
    Sometimes a “NO” can be a blessing needed for new life. But who knows when in the middle of outrage?
  • Circumstances 3
    With 2020 an existential freakout and restriction like dark clouds break for a beam of light and new direction.
  • Circumstances 4 (conclusion)
    This is how some creative ideas develop as the developmental course gets blocked and altered by circumstance—but then: lightning.

    This is a fine example of memory conflation. Bob Dylan didn’t say that! What did Bob Dylan say?
