When I told Stacy I was starting to write blog posts, she asked, “Are you starting with a love letter?” At first the question hit me sideways, but a few seconds later I realized that she had a point: We love you!
When someone produces a piece of art and puts it out into the world, it is a gift. We can freely receive it, be moved by it, be inspired by it, absorb it into our experience of the world and be the richer for it. Isn’t this what we want to do for those we love?
Stacy and I have spent our lifetimes looking at things, thinking about them, and allowing them to influence us. Here is where we can share some of what we’ve found. A lot of our observations are about design, but not all of them. We can learn about the creative process from actors, artists, musicians, artisans, nature, and yes, architects and designers, too. If we love it, we will want to share it - that's our gift to you.
Regardless of the medium, the best pieces of art are the ones that come from the heart. Freely given. With love.
