Artists, try a vision quest?
    #5923714 - 08/01/06 11:16 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

To all my fellow artists out there, whether you think your good or not, have you tryed a vision quest? Also, how do you go about yours?

I've yet to try one, but I was incouraged by an artist who does them all the time. He says he starts by taking a black surface and slowly adding neutral tones in some what random patterns/formations. From this point objects should evolve, with the adding of brighter colors. Judging by his work I think it defintley helps, speacially if your having an imagination block!

A vision quest in the context of an artistic tool is a search for inspiration. It can be done through meditation, but I'm thinking mainly about a vision quest with the aid of hallucinogens. Every one has their own way to go about a vision quest so the easiest, broadest way to define it is by simply reading into the title; a quest for visions.

So basically, get high and draw stuff? :smirk: I kid.

Maybe next time I take a journey I will take along my sketchbook.

That process is nothing special. If you take any art classes in college or wherever, what you just described there as the "vision quest" is merely the process of pushing your atwork to new boundaries. This applies enormously to abstract art too.

Every time I sit down to do anything artistic, it's a process of trial and error/pushing the envelope/seeing between the lines.
