Artist Statement
I find it easy to be creative.
However, the only thing I cannot create is....
....INSPIRATION.
From where does it come?
Why does it arrive when it does?
Where does it go?
There.... for but a moment, the image captured, then gone.
Like a gentle breeze, taken back into it's home; the roiling, eternal cosmic storm of all life, creation and thought.
It is far greater than me, the source of this breeze.
For, it is the source of ALL.
Am I using this inspiration, or it, me?
The question hangs, bloated and waiting.
As I use the brush to create, I ponder the concept of myself, perhaps being an instrument in the hand of the true, only, MASTER artist. For, is it not God?
