The pull of wonder and beauty is in the artist as well as the viewer. Loved this article.

I am terrible at this Substack business, Eugene, but I am an artist, a poet,, a huge fan of physics, and a PhD candidate in depth psychology and Jungian studies at Pacifica Graduate Institute. As an artist I call myself an Open Expressionist, a movement from the early 20th century which lasted as long as a firefly on a summer night. The interplay between art and my studies has unleashed intuition and illumination and a life-long journey to individuate. Thank you!

Wow, artist, poet, physics, Jungian studies. It's like you're describing all my current interests, lol. Art is indeed a great channel for shadow-work and the individuation process.

responding to the “quiet but irresistible pull of Wonder and Beauty” is the essence of true art.

I absolutely love this! This whole article and especially this quote. Can you send the link to where it came from?
