Alyson Lapan {the dilettante​}
Definition of dilettante:
1: a person having a superficial interest in an art or a branch of knowledge: a dabbler
2: an admirer or lover of the arts
I sometimes wish my art “said something,”
but the creation of it does for me so I guess that has to be enough.
I am constantly amazed and delighted by the concept that
I can translate visual stimuli into a physical interpretation
that can be understood by others, using colored pastes and objects.
Or, as I said to my husband recently,
“my eyeball tells my brain some stuff
and then my hand remembers it with some gunk.”
Amazing.
