side thought...

As it gets late and my thoughts start turning to mush, I was wondering as I wrote my last artist blog how differently our environments affect our thoughts. I find it fascinating how one object can suggest numerous amounts of interpretations depending on one's past experiences and current knowledge. I can look at something as simple as a piece of paper and to me I immediately start thinking about all the ways I can transform this piece of paper into a palette of colors and shapes that express the thoughts and emotions I hold inside of me. Someone else though might look at that piece of paper and think about the process that went in to making that paper while I was more concerned with the actual paper as a product or means for creating something entirely different. We all see the world so much differently and if I could gather everyone's individual thoughts and ideas and mush them together, I would be so curious to see what would come out of that...
