When Things Come Together in a New Way


 "Volcano" by Bettina Madini
Watercolor and ink on paper
22"h x 30"W

When Gary Douglas says that our creations have a life force of their own, I can just say "Yes! Totally!" I so know this from painting! How often have I tried to 'fight' a painting! Sort of "What? I don't want to paint you!" .... (so cute!....) 

Yet, if I allow them to move through, and I create with them, and I don't have a point of view or even thought (thoughts never help, ever noticed?), and I be the space of creation, magic is there, with me! 

"Volcano" came out of the Blue. Didn't have it as an idea, didn't 'compose it' cognitively and created it in the moment. From the Space of Creation!
