  2. Alice – Although I write in many forms, I am first of all a poet. My job is to see the wonder of something newly made from old patterns. Letters become words; words become lines and form into poems.

  6. Gretchen Del Rio – Crestline, California, USA – I first discovered the magic of water based colors when many years ago I began to paint with procion dyes on silk. I loved the unexpected quality of the process. It was so exciting to never be sure what the colors and water would combine to produce. It seemed as though the medium had its own passion. Painting with watercolors and paper is much the same. I love the color combinations and separations that occur spontaneously as the color floats on the water. You can never totally predict what effect will result. If you try to control the medium too much, your painting will be very tight losing its aliveness. The artist must be bold and decisive or the work will not be clear and fresh. It is really like a dance. It becomes a controlled folly in knowing when to let go and when to take charge of the direction that the painting is taking. The images that I paint reflect my emotions and are expression of my life experience. They are not extensively planned, but rather evolve as the painting progresses. I am always surprised by the end result since it comes into being because of what the medium and emotion has suggested. The paintings are from my heart and I always fall in love with the subject. I believe that we are all connected and, if an image touches you, it is because we all have the same heart even though our paths may be different. Most of all, painting what I paint makes me happy. The paintings are my own path unfolding. They are an opening door for me and contain my own passion for life.

    Oh yes. The sanctuary.

  8. letsgetreal2016 – USA – I'm an artist who is entranced by color and light. I also love to paint the contrast between the hard, geometric lines of manmade structures and soft, flowing lines of nature.

    Perfect sentiment to accompany this photograph. Gets me thinking about “captions” for some of my photos, so thank you for the inspiration.

  16. Nice, especially when you consider that in this universe there is more ‘space between’ than anything else: solace should not be difficult to find.
