RECENT — ROMOLO DEL DEO

It seems to me that as much as the artist imagines that their artwork is a manifestation of their will, it sometimes seems the other way around, and the artwork is deciding for itself who and what it wishes to be. The artist can fight it or accept the decision of the artwork. Perhaps the the secret is to learn how to listen to what the art is saying and grow together. And that, truly is the most beautiful thing about being an artist, in my opinion.
