We use our eyes and voice and smell to recognize and establish items to
tell the brain what it is, but what if one of those senses was not there?
Take a look at a painting.
Now describe it to another person without them seeing it.
Sounds easy?
I challenge you to do this. Why?
It will surprise you and to the one you are trying to describe the image
without viewing it.
Take this example of the Mona Lisa.
“There is this lady, well a woman. She doesn’t look old or young but may
mature. She’s got a long nose so maybe Italian but the eyes look like there is
a lack of sleep. Here skin tone is sort of yellow or white and here eyes are
dark. She is standing, no maybe sitting still. Her hands are folded on her lap.
Her shoulder hair is straight and parted in the middle but with curly ends and
her dress or whatever she is wearing is dark. Looks like she is wear a hoodie
over a peasant’s dress with just a hint of cleavage. She might be plump or
maybe pregnant. Behind her is some kind of winding road going to a lake or a
river. There is a cliff and some trees and a bridge but it is very vague. She
is looking over to the right side and has a somewhat grin going on.”
Can you visualize what I just said? Could you draw or sketch or paint the
vision in your head?
Now try a Jackson Pollack or a Rodin or a Led Zeppelin concert. Unless
you experienced the same feelings and discussed the reactions afterwards, it is
difficult to explain to another.
The same is for a reading or a viewing or any personal influence to share
with another who is a virgin to the thought.
Just let everyone enjoy or define his or her own meaning of the
experience.
