Seeking Inspiration
One of the main issues a creative person can have is keeping inspired. Sometimes art feels more like a thankless task than a fulfilling purpose. 'Am I doing the right thing?' being a prominent and repetitive question I ask myself. (Is it any good? being quick on it's heels) maybe it would be easier to do something else.... that pays a decent wage. But then you have a moment when the shape of the branches of a tree looks like gossamer spun basket back lit by the orb like glow of a streetlight, or the crystaline structures on a puddle make your breath catch. and you know that all you want to do is try to capture at least some small semblance of that beauty... I may never succeed but that is the quest I have set myself, in search of beauty - what better way to spend a life?
