Hope this finds you feeling a little better now and on the road to better health Jill.I think all the arts be they visual, performing or musical require a basic background knowledge to begin to appreciate them. That said however some forms definitely speak to one more than others.In their own fashion each paints a picture with texture, and requires light and shadow to create depth and colour to convey its message. Sometimes we receive the beautiful calligraphied letter and we really get the message, and at othertimes it's just a post-it note we screw up and throw in the bin, LOL!Kim Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00020977100640715191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-43423262443541977582010-10-28T11:50:12.136-04:002010-10-28T11:50:12.136-04:00What a fabulous post Jill!

Last night I was watching a documentary on the musical trio - RUSH and there were several metaphors similar to what you've written here. <br /><br />The butterfly coming to visit you, I can assure you is not by chance. Similar stories abound and it's amazing how much synchronicity erupts when people practice acts of kindness like you have~!<br /><br />xoxox<br />Trudi.Trudi Sissonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875840047650995655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-27438473768017847192010-10-26T22:10:58.483-04:002010-10-26T22:10:58.483-04:00Hi Jilly - WON-DER-FULL post!

Love the colors, shapes, music - perfect post as we head into the cold of fall and winter's freezing moments. the white of snow, shades of brown in trees and shrubs/grass - things that used to be green. Yes - the appreciation of music and art. One of our daughters is art - visual, fiber, sculpture. Another - music, sound, word play - knows all the words to all the songs. Both - art filled.

I love that you discuss that here, with your beautiful walk through the flowers as they play their concert for you!<br />I have been stepping back and watching the rain today, and sometimes right out into it as I try to play with video's. I am determined to capture the sounds, of the rain. of the wind blowing through the pines and birches, of the rustling leaves. <br />sending wishes for you to have a week filled with color and music. roxannerivergardenstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03018601892508498148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-50529317424205562992010-10-22T05:27:39.073-04:002010-10-22T05:27:39.073-04:00Jill!

I also "see" hot, cold and warm and everything in between, by touch. I know, sounds kooky but that's my brain's wiring for ya! Ha. I've heard a lot of artists have it...we just don't slow down long enough to "notice" it. <br /><br />One of my favourite genres of music is alternative, especially the trip hop djs...they are collage and mixed media artists using sound to create their pieces. I just "see" layers and layers of imagery when I listen to them.<br /><br />What a neat post, Jill! Look what you got me writing! Your photos are also splendid, as always!!!Debrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17628982861593852257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-49662109751486111652010-10-20T09:29:25.437-04:002010-10-20T09:29:25.437-04:00Gorgeous photos Jill - and I felt as though I coul...Gorgeous photos Jill - and I felt as though I could *hear* them as I approached them through your words. I can imagine the music that accompanies the petals playing against the breeze, and the explosion of color from that spectacular rainbow!!<br />I know music effects me deeply when I'm creating, which is why I rarely listen to music when I am in the studio, unless I am trying to work through a specific emotion. Then I'll find music to support that feeling, crank it up, and paint with the feeling! But if I'm working on a specific project that needs concentration, I can't have music distracting me...<br /><br />Hope all is well with you! xox KarinKarin Bartimolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490920503677450338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-9453959904096389862010-10-17T18:18:28.465-04:002010-10-17T18:18:28.465-04:00So grateful to be surrounded by all fine and beaut...So grateful to be surrounded by all fine and beautiful things.Mescraphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12413525844069120130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921282077195224654.post-23608473767885852422010-10-16T23:41:41.692-04:002010-10-16T23:41:41.692-04:00Yes, it’s there - the connection!

Fill your heart and soul with music and it affects your creativity and everything else you do becomes better. When I read your “Rights of Passage” I sensed right away that it resembles a particular symphonic piece – it was so easy to see. But the plot is also a classic! I guess it was building up with all your notes behind clocks and symbols and here it was for us in your own words. Your pictures are wonderful - again.
