When I take the time
to look and to really see
and to apply my "foolish" imagination,
there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.
When I allow my eyes
to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see,
(very selfish maybe, but they are my eyes!)
I begin a journey, inventing a path
to the place I choose to go; and magic happens.
When I draw upon the hand-eye coordination
learned from the lessons of life and
the practice of art, perfected repetition
ingrained within my nervous system,
the muscles and sinew of my being
bring forth moving line and flowing color
synchronized with intuition and memory.
When I release all that I know from researching and thinking
and contemplating and finally surrender to the beauty before me,
there are secrets disclosed, and life vibrates before me.
When I bring the light infrom the outside world
created for others to hang on the wall,
and they take the time to look and to really see
and to apply their “foolish” imagination,
there are worlds within worlds
within worlds to be discovered.
