Art is a path on which we honour our world. — Robert Genn
Mary Beth that is beautiful and helpful. When we emerse ourselves in our art whatever it is we bring ourselves to a special place. Sometimes the magic happens and we transcend into a special place and forget all else. I enjoy doing that when I really get into a quilt or special project. Forget the rest of the world and live in the one I am in at that moment. Thanks for the reminder of how good that is to do.
