All Creation is made up of constructs, components if you will; every artist or creator has his own constructs where this unique set of components characterizes the artist's distinct style, and through which their art is made.

Art: If Beauty is Truly in the Eye of the Beholder...

                                                    Mona Lisa, Leonardo Da Vinci (1503-1506)
 "If Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder...then what makes a work like the Mona Lisa so Wonderful; what is it in the eye that we alike, must behold?"

Amen.
If Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder, then what makes a work like the Mona Lisa so Wonderful; what is it in the eye that we all must have in common?

Nature of a Painting's Outcome

Bridge over the Sun  C.T. Rasmuss, India ink/watercolor (2012).

If an artist's state of mind is completely calculated, especially in regards to the end result of the artwork, then what conclusion can be taken from a painting that's done over an extended period of time as well; is it considered to be forced since the end result is pre-determined, with the artist unwilling to expect a more 'natural' outcome..

Therefore...is it rather the artist's ability to listen to the conversation between the brush, canvas and what is being created or what the artist has set out to do, unwilling to compromise with the unexpected; that's most in tune with the 'Laws of Nature'?

Art: Art is to create, to create is to relate; to relat...: "Art is to create, to create is to relate; to relate to what is the question."

Relating to Creation

Untitled  C.T. Rasmuss, acrylic (2011)

Art is to create, to create is to relate; to relate to what is the question.
Art simply put, is man's response to the original act of nature's creation; therefore it is imperative for the artist to look to mother nature for the nurturing of their talent.

The artist's study of spatial components gives them access to tools, through which they can draw the viewer in that much closer.

Perception

Perception is always just an eye away...

A piece of artwork is most successful when the artist's intent is somehow communicated to it's viewers, including the artist of origination.

Contour lines can create depth from an aerial perspective as well as longitudinal; the trick is to successfully merge them into one perspective.

Movement must be subjected to stillness in order to exist within; therefore creating pure contrast.

A lonely artist knows everyone, yet no one knows the lonely artist.

The artist is truly free only when the artist can come to the realization; their process is what reveals truth and the product is that evidence.

If you were to start a painting knowing you were never going to be able to ever finish it; would you still start it?
An everlasting impression begins with just one line__

Any idea worth sharing needs a messenger that fits the reason; and full of energy in order to outlast the original source as well as the idea.

Art is: The Human Act of Creation.

Side A- B/W Juxtaposition:  C.T. Rasmuss, Acrylic on foam-core (2013).

            The Dictionary's definition of Art is:  
     ..the human act of creation...

Side A  C.T. Rasmuss, Acrylic on foam-core (2013).

I agree with this definition but may I also add that:  It is your Human Right, perhaps calling to partake, to some degree, in exercising your God given gift; of being Human! to attempt your hand at this beautiful privilege?!!!

Night & Day - A Modern Dilemma  C.T. Rasmuss - A technique invented by the artist. (2013-13).


As you've probably noticed in this blog, the Artist's portrayal of: 'Evolution'
