![]() ![]() Every poet finds his or her own muse – the irresistible figure that draws the artist toward the light of creativity. In his book The White Goddess, Robert Graves is very specific in his description of the muse: “The muse is a lovely, slender woman with a deathly pale face, lips red as rowan-berries, startlingly blue eyes and long fair hair…” But this portrait is far too limited. But most people, I think, have seen her without realizing who she was. Robert Graves, the British poet and novelist, equates the muse with the White Goddess or Triple Goddess of the ancient Celts: she who wields the power of life and death, inspiring awe and fear, love and lust in everyone with eyes to see her. Most people think of the muse as an elegant figure in flowing robes frozen in time on some ancient Grecian urn. It’s an expression and acknowledgment of our deepest emotions. That’s why I believe that all of us can write inspired songs and poetry. Love can turn any of us into a muse-inspired poet.

I’ve written many songs under the influence of muses- exploring the ways they suddenly appear and utterly change our lives, then just as quickly vanish and break the heart. Painters are inspired by their models, poets dedicate their finest work to their muse, and troubadours express their yearning for the Beloved in song. For this reason I always try to get to know as much as I can about the personality and the life of the person that I would like to portray".The poet, songwriter, or artist has a unique relationship with the muse. When I work on a portrait, I like to capture the essence of the character's personality prior to drawing his or her features. The aspects and details that stimulate my emotions are represented through strong and vibrant, or soft and undefined colors in a contrast that in my opinion is the meaning of life itself. When my emotions are able to surface I can then represent the aspect that mostly catch my attention, giving them new life. My inspiration is often nature, a theme that in the act of painting I compose and decompose like working on a mosaic, while at the same time, I enhance the details that allow my emotions to emerge. My vision extends to the narrow path, in the art of painting that makes reality and imagination co-exist and harmonize together.
