You can write into the air. You can speak upon a page. A painting can be a novel. A story can paint the perfect picture. Dance can express deep emotion. Emotions can stir deep movements with a chance observer. We dream in deep metaphors and visual puns. We weave them into stories that speak to our very souls. Artists tell those stories with or without words. That is the artist’s way.

Most everything I write comes from the paintings I paint and vice versa...

Sorry for the delay in reading your comment. Hubby has been sick....strange stomach virus. I like your perspective. The creative force is expressed in a multitude of ways and medium. I often found teaching a creative endeavor....enjoy your day, Sara Etgen-Baker
