The picture, if a picture results, is a by-product and may be useful, valuable, interesting as a sign of what has passed. The object, which is back of every true work of art, is the attainment of a state of being, a high state of functioning, a more than ordinary moment of existence.” Robert HenriIn this episode:What was life like growing up in Scotland?How did your artistic career begin?What have you learned about yourself throughout the years of your career?  How does life-long learning help create a fresh lens?How do you develop your creativity?How do you title your work?  Love the Clouded Judgements Collection.Redwoods are my favorite tress and you have a beautiful and deep picture of a woman hugging caressing a tree.   Please tell me about that shoot?  Your Life’s Essential Ingredients – 30 pairs of shoes – what do you love about shoes?  What life essential ingredient do they represent?Study you and Christian are doing…The Science of Art – can you tell the listeners more about it? https://www.thescienceofart.deLegacy Thanks for listening and enjoy the show.
