ARTISTIC THEORY
The accepted idea within the art community that each artist (or anyone) must make the ''either/or'' choice between representation or abstraction implies that imagination and reality do not co-exist.
Drawing upon the practice of creation by going before nature and art, open and eager, sensitive and alert, this is the essential pathway toward becoming sublime in your art. Seeing beauty helps us to create a more beautiful existence.
The transcending qualities of excellence in fine art
and high culture are theoretically accessible to all
seekers. But for many reasons, this pathway is dramatically
underaccessed.
The allure of great museums, Sister Wendy's marvelous
inquiries, San Francisco's abundance of art students,
all are reflections of society's longing for creative
solutions and awakened sensitivity. Ethics and beauty
may be more related than we think. An aesthetic awareness
helps us to practice and realize the harmony of life,
and is key to society's health and balance as a whole.
