Often times inspirations come from others, and if I'm so lucky as to have a conversation about the creative process or method or idea, a part of my mind buzzing with electricity trying to retain whatever was gleaned, filing away key points, while other parts are already formulating forms, color schemes, compositions, etc., etc,. etc.
But then as something arrives in view, on the lens or canvas, and as the magnetic draw to the work zone is entered, it becomes a completely solitary experience. I have found that the ability to multitask, even to perform a mundane task for thousandth time, is not only deliberately delayed but has decided to leave the room on it's own until further notice.
Grateful for all community who share their genius and imagination.
And for the solitude to hear and sing my own song. ~ tmb
