Art and Soul

Art making is my way of bringing soul back into my life. Soul is the place where the messiness of life is tolerated, where feelings animate the narration of life, where story exists. Soul is the place where I am replenished and can experience both gardens and graveyards. Art is my way of knowing who I am. Pat Allen

Imagination is the sympathetic medium in which dialoging with images occurs, the faculty through which we establish compassion, understanding, and respect for things other than ourselves.
