Ever since I can remember I have loved art and the freedom of expression it encourages. I still have a blind contour drawing from my old high school days that reminds me that internally we must learn to trust ourselves. Drawing blind contour requires us to look intently at the object, without looking at our paper. It also means that we must trust the final design to our eyes and hands. Art is a great gift, a blank slate, with no judgement. It’s an opportunity to appreciate simplicity and complexity at the same time. Each project requires me to look and listen, symbolically hearing what the art is saying. It becomes part of me and I it. It’s not just a project, but an expression.
