I will create art specifically for Call for Entries when I feel like they speak to me and the artwork I create. Recently I read a call for "Movement". Immediately my brain began to brainstorm a million ideas. Not being able to narrow it down to just one I decided to try to depict that movement of brainstorming. What does that spinning look like inside my head? The process of brainstorming any idea, visualizing it, creating it...it's a movement all of its own. The whole process of expression is exhilarating, scary, messy, beautiful, all consuming, relentless and completely magical. It's like giving birth to this idea that comes out at its own speed with a million things going right and wrong until what you are trying to say becomes a reality. Sometimes the end product is exactly how you pictured it and other times your idea takes on a life of its own. "When Thoughts Defy Gravity" is a final product about the process.
