The ultimate question.
One that I answered in todays art lesson.
I loved so many of the other students artworks - I loved the fluidity in some of the works... a fluidity I can't seem to muster in my own art. I'm beginning to think my arm just doesn't go like that... I watch Bonnie work - her whole arm in motion, gliding across the paper, hardly touching the paper with her charcoal - and my arm would never do that. I find it difficult to apply such minimal pressure to the page. Try?
The labyrinth has a path built into it, but there appear to be many ways to take that path. Following one pathway, and turning back is all part of the journey, so it looks like I'll be experimenting with vigour to expand my personal aesthetic - or, at least, play around with it.
Labyrinth, labyrinth, labyrinth. Should everybody's path be the same?
