“If what is seen and experienced is portrayed in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated through forms whose constructions are not accessible to the conscious mind but are recognized intuitively, then it is art.”
-Albert Einstein

I have a few events coming up for December! Flash Back Friday to my first conference presentation! Happy Fall Equinox, everyone! Autumn is officially here, and with it comes the season of holiday spices. From the perspective of a chef, my interest in the famous spice blend goes beyond the caffeinated beverage. Contrary to its name, the spice does not include pumpkin, but generally a blend of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Its been mentioned in cookbooks dating back to 1890's, with some similar recipes found from the 1790's. The mornings are getting chillier, a sign that autumn is creeping into the air. Soon the colors are going to shift from warm greens to cool yellows and reds. There's one week left to signup for my oil painting class at Gallery-One! With only a few spots and intended for beginners, you will create a black and white still life painting. I provide most of the materials, the main things you bring are a sketch book, your favorite pencil, and clothes you don't mind getting paint on. A busy, exciting weekend is upon me! Here's the rundown of what I'm doing: Not everything can be about research and science; sometimes an exercise helps teach the materials, relax the mind, and train the muscles. "While the rational mind is important, we gain a new perspective when we learn how many of the greatest scientific insights, discoveries, and revolutionary inventions appeared first to their creators as fantasies, dreams, trances, lightening-flash insights, and other non-ordinary states of consciousness." https://www.instagram.com/p/CwNSCZQJDBq/
