On my desk
is a small frame with a postcard of the painting “St Matthew and the Angel” By
Rembrandt. The painting shows him composing the New Testament seemingly being
inspired by an Angel whispering in his ear. The painting is dark except for a
heavenly glow on the Angel and Matthew. I love this painting because it shows
the power of purpose and inspiration. There are days when I am filled with so
much inspiration and days where the feelings of inspiration aren’t there but
because I am connected to my purpose I can motivate myself. It’s those times
when I come to the studio and through concentration, determination, I am able
to forget everything and discipline myself. Eventually I lose myself in the
dance and I always leave the studio feeling uplifted. I’ve learned that
inspiration is an ever growing spark, but purpose is the guiding force that
speaks to every situation, and steadily helps you regain your joy.
