#art, Inspiration Through Architecture in Valencia

[With «Danny-Boy» and Francisco (actor portrayal)/All Rights Reserved]

People talk about «inspiration» when they think of the process of creating art. I never think of such a thing. Perspiration is more likely to provide insight and ideas for a work of art than some superstitious belief in muses or such other elements designed to, supposedly, inspire. So I live in a very ancient city, actually it was built in the days of the Roman Empire. Here I find «inspiration» in many things, but mostly the gothic buildings…

Here is just one angle of the Micalet, the bell tower of the Cathedral of Valencia… It is truly amazing and inspiring…

Although I am not a landscape painter, I do learn and find many elements in architecture and in the natural world. Everything comes from the natural world that surrounds us. Even my abstract art takes root there and there hides its references. There is no such thing as an abstract, everything proceeds from something. Earth, life, the Universe, the «everything,» is a product of creativity, it is creation, not evolution. In art there is no such thing as evolution. There is always creation, development and spirit…

    That archtecture could provide the spark of an idea may inspire any of us to create something. But perspiration will take us further once the spark is realized. I have been inspired by reading a poem that lead to a riff taking the concept in a different direction or a scene that evoked a response.

    l looked at it from different angles

    with divergent thoughts of flows and tangles

    No straight lines or defined corners

    But lots of ideas to put in order.
