A trip to Wash. DC today to get my art batteries all charged up. I found some new heroes, and revisited some old ones. I am convinced that well made objects can change the world. I found myself taking some of the lessons that I learned from the work out into the world. My life better for it.
Poem Time:
Tonight I long for a thunderstorm. Me on a back porch, the rain patiently falling. Lightning showing off the clouds, all whites, oranges, and purples, but just a peek at a time, its luminescence scattered across the sky. Far off thunder speaks of power, and mystery, a low rumbling that joins me to the earth. the warm summer air brings with it moisture, its temperature just warm enough to be felt on the skin. I in a chair, maybe family, maybe friend, or alone, it is the quiet and calm that I long for, the magical enchantment of the unknown.
My name is Thomas Stollar. This is my last semester of graduate school at WVU. My thesis deals with introspection, and gaining a better understanding of how everyday experiences shape human character. The project is process oriented with the intention of documenting my most thought provoking experience for each day of January 2012. Each experience will be symbolically decorated onto forms like these. In the end all of the forms will compose a metaphorical version of my personality.
