The artist's mission is to make the soul perceptible. Our scientific, materialist culture trains us to develop the eyes of outer perception. Visionary art encourages the development of our inner sight. To find the visionary realm, we use the intuitive inner eye: the eye of contemplation; the eye of the soul. All the inspiring ideas we have as artists originate here.

I happened to pop into Westminster Cathedral today (not WM Abbey) and there was a mass going on. But it was a full on choral mass. The Cathedral is hooj, and what was esp great was there were only like 100-150 people attending. But it was something to hear an old choral work (no idea what it was) in the real setting it was intended for. Something else. We have a couple cathedrals in Seattle, but neither are as big as this one.
