Waiting for the world

Gazing into the future I see many possibilities as I am waiting for the world to come to me.

As artist we must take time to stop and let the world come to us.  Does that sound like a strange concept to you?  Artist are observers but we must be patient and consistent observers.  As a photographer it is routine for me to photograph the same scene more than once.  Most people would say sure because landscapes change with the seasons and interiors change with lighting.  Those are true statements but that is not always the purpose of photographing the same scene more than once.  There are times when I stare at a scene or a photo of a scene and I know there is something more there it just hasn’t revealed itself yet and therefore I have to be patient and let it come to me rather than trying to create it or force it.  Creating art is a journey and some masterpieces are long journeys.   Today be an observer gaze into the future and let the world come to you!!!
