"Be wild; that is how to clear
the river. The river does not flow in polluted, we manage that. The river does
not dry up, we block it. If we want to allow it its freedom, we have to allow
our ideational lives to be let loose, to stream, letting anything come,
initially censoring nothing. That is creative life. It is made up of divine
paradox. To create one must be willing to be stone stupid, to sit upon a throne
on top of a jackass and spill rubies from one’s mouth. Then the river will
flow, then we can stand in the stream of it raining down." -Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run with the Wolves
I have been blessed this week with time to "clear the river" -- meaning large chunks of time in the studio to open the flow of creativity. Today I started a new journal with this quote above, cleaned my space, and shot fresh images of my hands. I am excited to see where all of this will take me.
