Quote: Inspiration is always everywhere…
“That which takes place by surprise, moments of happiness, that is inspiration. Inspiration is there all of the time for everyone whose mind is not clouded over with thoughts, whether they realize it or not. Inspiration is pervasive but not a power. It is a peaceful thing. It is a consolation even to plants and animals. Do not think that it is unique. If it were unique, no one would be able to understand your art work. All of the moments of inspiration added together make what we call sensibility, and a development of sensibility is the most important thing for children and adults.” ~ Agnes Martin, from a lecture Cornell…

Portrait: Hidden Light
“You are the light that gives light to the world. A city that is built on a hill cannot be hidden. And people don’t hide a light under a bowl. They put it on a lampstand so the light shines for all the people in the house. In the same way, you should be a light for other people. Live so that they will see the good things you do and will praise your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16
