Art & Inspiration
Recently I finished reading Makoto Fujimura’s book “Refractions: A Journey of Faith, Art and Culture.”
It reminded me how much I love to be moved by some kind of medium. For instance, I love minor, somewhat mystical, cautious music. For the classical lovers, “A Night on Bald Mountain” by Mussorgsky would fit that genre for me.
Fujimura reminded me how much Art, in its various forms really inspires me on some visceral level.
For instance, I have never been able to get enough of Bateman’s “Midnight Wolf”
"Midnight - Black Wolf"
While reading and finishing Fujimura’s book I was left wondering if i spend enough time being inspired. Somehow I don’t think so.
So, what inspires you? Do you spend time allowing yourself to be inspired?
Just something I’m pondering

PS. If you love pictures that capture the rawness and beauty of life. “The Big Picture” is one of my favorite sites.
