And I really like that idea of the artist as a connector.

Thank you! I have that book, but it was disappointing for me, I learned those skills earlier than I acquired it. But it can be useful, I see.

Thanks, Wendy! This is conceptual thinking, and it’s a bit academic, doesn’t appear in the general art talk so much.

It is so subtle and dynamic all in the same piece of work. Great job, Paivi!

Her first book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, was so helpful when I taught middle school to adult
students during my çareer.
Your Milky Way series is very impressive and seems like a perfect example of using the skills of both sides of your brain.
I have enjoyed seeing your work and reading your words about it.

I have not seen this in words before. I wonder if this is why I get stuck and frustrated looking at art in Pinterest!
