"Side roads" was the topic I chose for this month's art concept challenge.
What is a road? A path, a direction, a destination,? How do we choose which road to take? Where will it lead me, what will I find? Will it be easy or difficult? Will I succeed or fail?
Lots of questions and not too many answers? I recall on some of the road trips that I took in the US sitting on the bed and mapping out the next days trip. Most often we chose the scenic route.
My art journey is also like a road. Should I take the highway, faster and more secure, or take the challenge of the scenic route with all its surprises?
I choose the scenic route!
Quotes:
"If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there."
Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost
Goosey Goosey Gander where shall I wander
Nursery Rhymes
So many roads. So many detours. So many choices. So many mistakes.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Take the back roads instead of the highways
Minnie Pearl
One always wonders about roads not taken
Christopher
Sometimes it's the journey that teaches you about your destination
