Artists Kim Dufford, ceramic sculptor and Victoria Kwasinski, painter, both claim that they often experience a sense of wonder while in the creative process.
“I wonder what would happen if I try this?“
“I am in a state of wonder by this result.”
The Oxford Dictionary defines the word wonder as: (noun) a feeling of surprise mingled with admiration, caused by something beautiful, unexpected, unfamiliar or inexplicable. (verb) desire or be curious to know something.
WHY WONDER?
The only sensible response to this intricate, lovely, tattered world is
WONDER.
To stop and notice, even for a moment, all the small and interconnected miracles surrounding us, life’s endless disclosures, is to be thrown headfirst into WONDER. This life is truly a marvel, we are each and every one, a marvel.
