"After all, we cannot know what we are going to express. What is really creative is bound to be a surprise
because it is something we couldn't have thought of. This is the thing that we resist the most. We want to
know where we are going, why we are doing it, and what it is going to give to us. We want to know it all.
To be creative means becoming more familiar with being a little lost. If we are always full of what we
want to do, there is no room for the new."- Michell Cassou

Recent MFA Visit

Close up of a hay bale by Jamie Wyeth

I recently had an unexpected spontaneous trip to the Museum of Fine Arts, in Boston.

I had wanted to see the Jamie Wyeth Show. Yes, it is a very, very special show. The paintings are worth the trip.

I also got to walk through Shinique Smith's work. While I like the energy in her work, I did not find everything resolved as well as it could be. But, in the abstract, it is strong and Powerful!

Great visit.
