This site explores personal experiences with visual art woodworking, education and other miscellaneous life activities.
“Every person is a special kind of artist and every activity is a special art. An artist creates out of the materials of the moment, never again to be duplicated. This is true of the painter, the musician, the dancer, the actor; the teacher; the scientist; the business man; the farmer - it is true of us all, whatever our work, that we are artists so long as we are alive to the concreteness of a moment and do not use it to some other purpose.” - Mary Caroline Richards - Centering
“The artist is not a person endowed with free will who seeks his own ends,
but one who allows art to realize its purposes through him.
As a human being he may have moods and a will and personal aims,
but as an artist he is "man" in a higher sense - he is "collective man,"
a vehicle and molder of the unconscious psychic life of mankind.”
- Carl Jung, - Psychology and Literature
