When Art and Life Merge
When I put the thick glistening gold paint on and watch the fine red thread of color migrate from the canvas back to an outstretched bristle of the brush and then see it collide with a tiny mound of blue-violet edging the white lily of the painting. I know and feel why I paint.
It's the squealing in my soul, the physical flood of endorphins, and the slow motion visual magic of mistakes turning towards magnificence. The simple white canvas and paints, generating love from somewhere so unpredictable and sacred, that I simply surrender and paint usually in awe of god.
For an artist, god is Creativity.
Art is an open gate to the divine.
