Another year: Art Talk is two years old this month. I must admit that I'm proud of myself for sticking with it this long.
Someone said that every drawing is a self portrait. I tend to believe that to be true of all mediums and, if that's the case, I've put myself out there to the whole world as all artists do when their work is viewed by the public. The good news is that this blog is a vehicle for connection. I feel like I'm talking to a friend when I write these posts.
I have two goals for this blog: a place to view my work and think about art and a place to be reminded, now and then, of the mystery and beauty of wild places; vital, living environments that should be allowed to exist simply because they exist.

My hope is to move someone, somewhere,
a millionth of an inch*
*HOW TO BREAK THROUGH:
“Have big dreams but focus only on what you can control: your own thoughts, words and actions. This was Gandhi’s way … in the words of poet Gary Snyder,
our job is to move the world a millionth of an inch.”

ReplyDeleteI am increasingly aware of how nature is put into economic terms...a trend which I believe is bad for the preservation of nature and only serves to hold off some faction from raping the land. We need to get to the point where society decides to preserve a place for no other reason than because it is a good thing to do...because it lifts the heart to know that it is there, even if no one ever sees it.
