Make a picture + you expect a somewhat open interpretation. That's what i like in visual art. i like words direct + telescoped into pointed meaning. So the incantation is less questionable. But that rarely happens — unless everyone is using the same dictionary.
One image seen + identified says something so very different than a wordy description. there is a multitude of relationships w/ the visual world. Not trying to pigeon hole, just musing. Everything i just said could be turned on its head, + still sound true, too. Using those limited words i so falter with.
Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet. -Bob Dylan
Jerry often says that Slam Bradley was really the forerunner of Superman, because we turned it out with no restrictions, complete freedom to do what we wanted; the only problem was that we had a deadline. -Joe Shuster
The ultimate inspiration is the deadline. -Nolan Bushnell
Wow.. great quotes... I so agree about the deadline!
ReplyDeleteMuse away Jayne! But sometimes I do find myself seeking a different dictionary altogether. Helps me to understand their words, so to speak. Puting one's-self on the same page, if you will, wot?
ReplyDeleteI so, enjoy the quotes. And the art. You do give one quite the mental feast y'know... :)
Those are awsome quotes!
ReplyDeleteI love turning the world on its head. When someone takes an idea I hold as usual and customary and makes me look at it in an entirely new light, oh yeah, I am in awe.
ReplyDeleteYes, its the combination of the art, the words and the quotes. It's like a three course meal. Very satisfying.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post :-). I love the quotes and the one about the deadline is the truth!
ReplyDeleteinterpretation does funny things...when we write, or paint or draw we turn that part of our heart ove to thers to do what they will...
ReplyDeleteWords don't come easy but they always paint pictures*!*
ReplyDeleteEveryone, Thanks for visiting...
ReplyDeleteSubby, I reckon the more ways to say a single thing the better. Jargon is useful.
RL, Thanks ever so much!
Alan, Burp!
...see you on your blogs!
Visual poetry! Yes, we may use the same dictionary but sometimes the meanings change due to our individual state, the reason why some graffiti provoke deep thought and the others just provoke annoyance.
ReplyDeleteCes, Point right on and well taken!
