The Art of Experiencing Less Ego & More Divine

Very simply, it is impossible to be in harmony with inspiration -- with The Divine when occupying a position of ego.
As an artist I cannot paint a "great" picture. I can paint a work that I want to be great -- from what I think others will buy or appreciate. This will fail overtime. although based on subject matter it may find a collector quickly.
On the other hand when I open myself to be inspired, to paint what seems to happen, then I have a chance to create something great that will continue to communicate and move people long after this generation has passed away.
Artists such as Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Monet, Picasso, Warhol, and my beloved van Gogh were inspired. Some of them spoke and wrote about that.
I am founding a new theory of art, Post Conceptual UnGraven Image, and most of this journey has been inspired. I seem to fall or stumble up. It surprises me, alsmost on a daily basis what happens and the twists the journey takes.
