“Magic is a combination of art and science. It's an art because of the traditional parts of things, the graceful gestures, the sonorous invocations, the use of colour, sight, sound, all of these things make it very much an art form. Yet it is also a science as well because we expect something to come of what we do. Using and creating these almost dreamlike inner landscapes in which we can live, move, and have our being.” WellsArtUseMovingFormSoundMagicCreatingArt IsSightTraditionalLandscapeCombinationColourGesturesArt And ScienceInvocation Author:Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki
