A Delightful, Mysterious Process....

Art comes from everything, and in the process of trying to put down an idea,
many wondrous things can happen, as long as the artist does not give up, remains open
and is willing to push through difficulties and walk into unknown worlds.
It takes courage, perseverance, and sometimes, very hard work.
Above all, it is the decision to create, and allow the creative process to evolve.
At times, it may mean, figuratively, jumping off a cliff without knowing
where the ground is…yes there will be mistakes, but sometimes in magical moments,
amazing things happen that the artist could never have imagined…
It is a delightful, mysterious process.
