Dear Life, This “equation” hangs on my studio wall: Heart + Inspiration = New Work. I painted the small, tempera heart in 1991 and it recently surfaced when I opened up a tablet of paper. It had been hiding. The magazine tear-out was discovered while looking for collage material. In it is a painting that inspires me. Another magazine piece offers a beautiful landscape that has the word AUTUMN on it. This is creative juice for a series of acrylic paintings on birch panels that are still blank. Math and Art sparking Joy.
