Description: In order to create an artistic piece, we need to continuously extract information from the world around us. Such process requires a person to immerse into passive observation - just take in the information from the environment (through the senses) without judging its content or selecting/labeling it beforehand. And then the magic of translating such observation into the act of creation and artistic expression can finally begin. It’s a cathartic release and colorful experience that any creative person needs and it is drawn towards. A vortex of ideas with unpredictable currents that lead us to discovering new creative lands. The mind gets to process sensory information and transform it into ideas, combining and merging things into new complex shapes, or reducing the complexity of it to simple ways of expression. A magical process of creation, indeed.
