Everything is gestation and then birthing.
Sometimes when we don’t quite understand what the world is trying to tell us, or we are not quite sure where a painting is taking us, it helps to remember that…
“Everything is gestation and then birthing.
To let each impression and each embryo
of a feeling come to completion,
entirely in itself,
in the dark,
in the unsayable,
the unconscious,
beyond the reach of one’s
own understanding,
and with deep humility
and patience to wait
for the hour when a new
clarity is born: this alone is
what it means to live
as an artist: in
understanding as in
creating.”
~Rainer Maria Rilke
