Invisible Influence
collage, 7.25 x 6.75 inches
"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation) there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would not otherwise occur."
~ W. H. Murray, The Scottish Himalayan Expedition
"When we are writing, or painting, or composing, we are, during the time of creativity, freed from normal restrictions, and are opened to a wider world, where colors are brighter, sounds clearer, and people more wondrously complex than we normally realize."
~ Madeline L'Engle

ReplyDeleteThank you Elfi... it's hard to restrain myself from using lots of color, but it's a fun exercise
DeleteBeautifully selected 'bits'.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Jo!
DeleteLove the monochromatic color palette! And always love your quotes!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Judy. Monochromatic is very unusual for me, but I like to give it a try every once in a while!
DeleteI'm also fond of the monochromatic palette...as it allows the images to become dreamlike. Also like this second quote...really real dimension!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary Ann.... Monochromatic is very much out of character for me,but it's good to challenge myself sometimes. I like the second quote a lot, too.
