I was recently inspired by the tv at the gym. I was walking on the tread mill and watching the tv without audio. I forgot my earbuds. I realized that I could learn a lot about composition, division of space, camera angles and the like for this soundless video.
This is just another example of how learning, inspiration and often the answers are right there if we can open our eyes, be still and let it in. Hmmm?
This idea of seeing and making art was confirmed yesterday when I went to listen to Barbara Moody talk about finding the artist’s voice. Early in her presentation she noted how we, artists can walk down the same street and see very different inspirations, from shape, texture, line, color and subject matter.
What is your inspiration? What do you see?
