Experimental

An old Buddhist saying is that there is much to be learned by watching a child at play. My interpretation of this saying is that young children see the world in a fresh new way. They’re open to exploring and experimenting with all the sights, sounds and smells around them. Sometimes I challenge myself to be more open with my creative process, pushing myself to “think out of the box”. Not to be afraid to try something new. Yes, not all creative paths lead to success, but it is in this journey that we learn and improve our own vision.
