"for spacious skies,

For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountains majesty,
Above the fruited plain,
But now wait a minute, I'm talking about
America, sweet America…"

Thoughts on the edge.

it's the connection point between object and air.

i've been paying  attention to it for a while--this thing about beauty… what makes an object  beautiful? it's the attention and detail given to the edge. to the  line. on paper--it's the line on a plane---in an open field of space. With an object---it's the way the line touches the invisible. Does it touch it with sensual, graceful, melodic curves…or with  angular thrashes abbreviated and clipped in staccato. i can hear color and i can hear shapes. i hear images… much better than i've ever been able to  hear the beats of music. within images i can hear  and feel numbers like a pianist with notes. truth theorems….

and why is BEAUTY the thing so desired? one of the best compliments to be given and received. What is really being yearned for here? what confirmation is being extended? What is the real honor that has been forgotten?

i'm thinking on this as i write….and coming to realize that it has to do with homage---something much more ethereal and sacred than a case of vanity. it's a touching of the 2 worlds. a presentation of one to the other…. where the physical extends itself to the invisible.  for an artist---the presenter---the hostess---when an image and object is made to exist in this world… it's about being sensitive to how to greet the greatness of the unseen---of the all that surrounds. with shoes? with a bow? a hand shake? with palms together in grace. with the formality of respect. with the softness of a line. with the refinement of the detail. with the sensuality of the edge. With the path and imitation of pi.

The Work.

I do believe these to be my favorite…most inspiring... presidential words to date:

via humans of new york:

“When is the time you felt most broken?”

“I first ran for Congress in 1999, and I got beat. I just got whooped. I had been in the state legislature for a long time, I was in the minority party, I wasn’t getting a lot done, and I was away from my family and putting a lot of strain on Michelle. Then for me to run and lose that bad, I was thinking maybe this isn’t what I was cut out to do. I was forty years old, and I’d invested a lot of time and effort into something that didn’t seem to be working. But the thing that got me through that moment, and any other time that I’ve felt stuck, is to remind myself that it’s about the work. Because if you’re worrying about yourself—if you’re thinking: ‘Am I succeeding? Am I in the right position? Am I being appreciated?’ --- then you’re going to end up feeling frustrated and stuck. But if you can keep it about the work, you’ll always have a path. There’s always something to be done.”  ~ Barack

Artist of Life ( Forward)

The path of an artist...

" There are not a great many truly outstanding people who  pass through our lives. These few remarkable people leave a distinct imprint when their chosen path in life happens to cross ours. Indeed, an encounter with an extraordinary human being at a particular confluence in the course of our daily existence may define our destiny."
