Life and Art

Even though it might seem like an nice ideal, it's not a pretty picture to see someone create without interruptions. Because you have to deny other humans around you. I like the idea of letting the interruptions in through the door because it allows the world to be present in your process. It allows other human beings to be present. Allowing our work to be interrupted by a child, to answer a question, to heed an inner voice, will direct our paths to the solution we are working for. They are life and death choices. Paying heed to interruptions begins to set us on track of those creators who integrate their art into their daily life. There is no separation. Interruptions are essential. They remind us that there is more to life than our art.
