This transcendental quality of art can be the potentiality of magic. Beauty shared, an aesthetic intelligence noticed, is what draws us into our own receptivity.
Everything is gestation & then bringing forth. To let each impression & each germ of a feeling come to completion wholly in itself, in the dark, in the inexpressible, the unconscious, beyond the reach of one’s own intelligence, & await with deep humility & patience the birth-hour of a new clarity: that alone is living the artist’s life…understanding as in creating…………Rilke
We hardly notice……but the heart knows….as a central core….a vital cause of transparency….
Beware….we may discover red or crimson or magenta for the first time.
No amount of skillful invention can replace the essential element of imagination….Edward Hopper
Beware…..we may stumble to this edge too often….complacency never returning….never hidden by fog again….
