Creating art for me is a similar experience to meditation or dancing, walking in the woods or being at the river. The creation of art brings me inner peace.
We could say that a personal artistic journey is how creativity is explored to transform ideas, over time. The visual form will change or be altered as a result of the exploration of the ideas, curiosities, openness to learn and grow, subjects, mediums, philosophies, meditation practice, training, classes, and experiences in nature and life. One may pause along the way, to gather and grow and then continue on the journey. I have been blessed and am very grateful to have met many amazing people in my life who have inspired me along my curious journey. Each person or experience came from different walks of life, all with a common thread, they were also on a journey of bettering themselves and finding purpose and peace. They are my family, teachers, artists, different authors, colleagues and friends. In their own unique and special way they inspired me to listen to my inner voice which said, "listen to your heart and you will always recognize your path". With love and gratitude. |
