An artist paints, dances, draws, writes, designs, or acts at the expanding edge of consciousness. We press into the unknown rather than the known. This makes life lovely and lively Picture Quote #1

Creativity is our true nature; blocks are an unnatural thwarting of a process at once as normal and as miraculous as the blossoming of a flower at the end of a slender green stem Picture Quote #1

In dance, in composition, in sculpture, the experience is the same: we are more the conduit than the creator of what we express Picture Quote #1

Setting skepticism aside, even briefly, can make for very interesting explorations. It is not necessary that we change any of our beliefs. It is necessary that we examine them Picture Quote #1

It is important to remember that at first blush, going sane feels just like going crazy Picture Quote #1

Your mood doesn’t really matter. Some of the best creative work gets done on the days when you feel that everything you’re doing is just plain junk Picture Quote #1

Mystery is at the heart of creativity. As creative channels, we need to trust the darkness Picture Quote #1

People frequently believe the creative life is grounded in fantasy. The more difficult truth is that creativity is grounded in reality, in the particular, the focused, the well observed or specifically imagined Picture Quote #1

My will for you is not harsh or unpleasant. It is gentle and perfectly tailored to your unique needs. Do not fear my direction. I am your heart’s happiest guide Picture Quote #1

No matter how sophisticated our lives may be we need to think of ourselves as creative children Picture Quote #1
