Food For Thought?
"We, as artists, in choosing to tap honestly into the creative fount within and to allow our responses to flow freely onto page or canvas, allow those who view our work to see that it is possible to do that; that it is possible to go into the depths, to make messes, to be imperfect and honest and open and to emerge safely, even to emerge enlightened. We take that journey, engage with that spirit, and risk those failures, on behalf of all mankind, in much the same way that monastics live and pray on behalf of all mankind." Thomas Merton
We need to hear the voices of those who share with honesty, inviting us to open our minds and hearts to possibilities we could not see without them.
Jmo, but artists with different talents are more numerous within our mists than we know.
Teachers all...none is exempt from being artistic; we just need to find our own medium.
In Peace
