Ive always struggled with the question ,"Do you believe in Love at first sight?"

We all have a story an experience. The I just knew, or it hit me like a ton of bricks! Intuition/fantasy/hope/delusion?

The invisible magical force that scientists, philosophers and hopeless romantics have debated for years. Is it voodoo, chemistry, Divine guidance, or serendipity?

What constitutes attraction/connection to a person/place/piece of art? What drives art collectors to spend thousands for a visual representation of a person,place or thing?

I think to be able to move the spirit is a gift- life would be sooooo unbearable without art, music, poetry to remind us all- life is more than just a series of checks and balances. As much as I enjoy the creative process, I do enjoy seeing the reaction of a human connecting with a piece of art that resonates with them.

Its such a personal/individual connection- I find fascinating is the ability of an art piece to light up the viewer. Senses are engaged and you can be transported to a time ,place or feeling. Some have expressed to me " not understanding art"- or deem it silly/wasteful: For me "experiencing it is the goal- if you find something that moves you or connects you- that is magic. Something divine in that! The cynical side of me, if left unchecked can chalk art up to manipulation, trickery or illusion. The optimist in me looks forward to enjoy all new creations.

When it comes to art, I do believe in "Love at first Sight"
