Musings of the Artists Mind

Imagine the hazy heat rising from the ground to blur everything; even the shadows cast from the trees seam lost in the excessive humidity of the day. The trees remind me of the mushrooms in Fantasia. Getting ready to dance apart in a whimsical circle of life and mischief.

What inspires an artist? 

“All they see” is the first and most literal answer. 

For me, that is literally hundreds of gallery & museum exhibits, thousands of books, and tens of thousands of images online.  

When asked where to start a book collections, I almost always recommend these art bibles: Janson’s “History of Art” OR Phaidon’s “The Art Book” Both give a nice overview with good pictures. Once you’ve discovered what you are attracted to there most, you can then dig deeper into that area. 

If you have the time, you are free to visit my GoodReads library to see a fraction of the books I’ve read. These are the ones I remember, that is. Or you can visit the ever growing collection on my Pinterest account.
