“The only way a work of art can become great is for one to acknowledge that it doesn't belong to anybody. The greatness is in constantly giving back, coming to an acknowledgment of the source. Look back to the source of any individual, any process, any set of materials. If the individual personality can relinquish its insistence on concepts like this is mine, I did it, this is original, nobody else has done it, it goes straight for greatness or the essential spirit.” IfsWayGivingLooksArtDoneSpiritIndividualProcessGreatnessMinesMaterialsSourcePersonalityEssentialsConceptsOriginalsPhotographerAcknowledgeWorks Of ArtGiving BackInsistenceAcknowledgmentIndividual Personality Author:Paul Caponigro

“A friend of mine helped me find my confidence by trusting the knowledge that I was not alone in writing my first book. She helped me wake up to the fact that I had a source of creativity that was my true creative nature and when I embraced it and asked for this presence in my life, I felt as if the dam of the Niagra Falls had burst and all sorts of wonderful things started to happen when I found my voice. It has been a process ever since and I am now a big advocate in the message that we are not alone and we all have ample creativity within us if we just trust it.” IfsWritingFirstsHas BeensBookFactsBigsHappensFallFoundFeltProcessVoiceCreativityCreativeWonderfulMinesSourceMessagesWake UpWonderful ThingsNot AloneDams Author:Agapi Stassinopoulos
