The eyes are the windows to the soul. The job of the
visionary artist is to experience higher spiritual states of
consciousness and to bring this experience-in the form of energy and
imagery- to the creation of his or her art.
Mr. Bressack narrates
in his own words, " At first, I was a little afraid to paint and
make mistakes, but it felt so good, I felt liberated every time I
started to paint. When two colors would touch each other, I sometimes
would shiver and my hair would tingle. I knew that I was now in
touch with another force. I literally felt plugged into the same
eternal creative flow of energy that has spawned art from time
immemorial. I was connected to the beginning. "
"At first, I used
colored pencils and pastel
chalks, none of which enabled me to capture and recreate the amazing
day and nighttime dreams that I was experiencing. I started
using acrylic inks with various size nibs or points, and then
everything fell into place."
Viewing the paintings as a process and analyzing the content of each
painting one can certainly feel that there is a gradual evolution in
progress. As a result of working together to
prepare this exhibit, Herb and I have shared a unique experience, he
is truly a unique and inspired artist sure to be recognized in due
course of time.
God Bless and Namaste.
