What a wonderful post. Your writing and collages inspire me to want to make something, anything, with attention, with conviction. Thank you so much for sharing.
I like this point you make: "Attention is incisive. It has a way of penetrating to the heart of something. A way of cutting away, through, and around anything unnecessary." There is something about our attention being drawn to something that is internal and revealing. Thanks for sharing.
This should be taught. It’s impossible I’ve found (personally-and once as a parent of an aspiring art student) to express the purpose of art and the artist - this does.
I’m really glad to hear that! It’s been a bit of a struggle for me to work on things these days, it makes me really happy that its work is still connecting.
I showed the post to someone who’s given thought to this - and who I find incapable of not saying what he thinks about any 2D work. “This is really good.. outstanding..”
