To feel the weight of it on you.
The power followed by exhaustion. Victory matched with defeat.
The burst of fury followed but the gentle push and pull of currents.
The slow pulse of time....
Talula explodes through the crowd..pushing and pulling to get to the center of the storm. One glimpse of The Fighting "Termeraire" and she feels more complete. It's ok to fade into the distance physically if you are emotionally diving into the center of the storm.
Talula lives by the Four Agreements as mentioned previously..but in consistency lies powerful reminders and eventually...truth.
1. Be Impeccable with your Word
2. Don’t Take Anything Personally
3. Don’t Make Assumptions
4. Always Do Your Best
She believes Turner lived this way as well...his work was met with criticism but he believed in it. He wasn't your normal 1800 painter; but he was progressive. Without saying the words..his art spoke for him.
Talula wanted to stand on the deck of the boat and experience the turmoil like Joseph Mallord William Turner.
She was no longer willing to stand and watch the excitement. She was jumping on board.
She could feel natures mood. He was a quiet fellow; but his skill showed up his silence.
At times he seemed too wild. Too careless...but to stand in front of one of his artworks today is to appreciate in fullness the emotional relationship he had with his subject.
He was a collector of information. Josh Rushkin writes "...from his tenth year to his seventieth, he never passed a day, and seldom an hour, without obtaining the accurate knowledge of some great natural fact; and, never forgetting anything he once knew, he keeps expressing this enormous and accumulated knowledge."
Information in art. What a wonderful source to learn from.
Another thing...maybe the most fabulous thing that Talula loves about Turner is that he liked things off on the perpendicular, and he liked to work big!
I'm not going to go there because I'm certain if you know me well...you already did.
Talula's going to go stand in the rain...catch ya on the wild side if you dare.
